femara side effects

I am on my 4th year of Femara. Everything is going pretty well EXCEPT I now have Cholesterol (245!) and never had a problem before. We eat a 99% healthy diet, I even wrote a cookbook about changing to a healthy diet. Lo and behold I have now gained about 20 pounds which is another side effect! My husband could not believe I could gain on our diet of mostly veggies, some fruit, a little bison and chicken, hardly any carbs. Anyone out there taking any kind of diet concotions to lose some of the weight? I'm always afraid to add supplements but would love some advice if you have had the same experience. My primary Doc does not want me to start statins which is fine with me.
