You’re correct. Saturated fat intake increases LDL (atherogenic kind, e.g. the “bad”) cholesterol, there’s even a nice formula for it: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25286466/

You could try eating more fiber (beans, fruit, etc) it’ll help naturally increase GLP-1 (same as ozempic) but without the cost and side-effects. You also most likely have a Leptin issue (fiber helps with this as well). I urge you to both look at Leptin and GLP-1 with relation to fiber and or therapies that will help you resolve your hunger issue. There’s adequate scientific literature to support eating more fiber helping these two, but you might need pharmacological therapy if changing your diet would be too disruptive. Lastly, you’re doing great and individuals who are overweight but exercise will live longer than skinny people who don’t. Hope that helps.
