Started at 195 lbs, down to 175 lbs. Goal weight is 145 lbs, a normal BMI for my height. Go to the gym 2-3 times a week, eat high protein, fruits and veggies everyday, and regularly take vitamins.
I’ve been dropping weight and gaining muscle the easiest I’ve ever had in my life. People have never noticed my weight loss attempts until now. I feel a lot better in my body, and no longer view junk food as the devil, that it is food and energy etc.
I got blood work back a couple weeks ago and was told my glucose levels were higher than normal. The last time I got blood work I had high cholesterol, so while I was glad that wasn’t the case this time, it still got me worried. Even though I’m losing weight, am I eating too much food high in sugar and sodium? I tend to stay in a caloric deficit, but have a sweet treat most days and don’t limit any takeout like pizza or fast food. So, in any normal week I could have 4-5 desserts and maybe one or two dinners out. I also drink alcohol, but no more than 2-4 drinks in one weekend, if at all.
The doctor didn’t seem extremely concerned but I don’t want anything to get out of hand. Is it bad for you to have a little bit of junk everyday? Will my blood sugar decrease as I continue to lose weight? Am I overthinking this? I don’t want to restrict myself since I’ve been doing well, but I also don’t want to make my health worse.
