Blood Pressure 110/81
Pulse 88
Glucose 95
Working out (5-6 days a week) and higher RDI seem to be doing the trick for me. It's weird to me that eating all this extra food somehow enhances my ability to lose weight.
I have noticed that my blood sugar has been running a little higher since I have been aiming to eat 110-120g of protein a day. I understand that excess protein will be turned into glucose by the liver. I'm ok with slightly elevated glucose levels (still in the safe range) if it helps me build muscle since the more muscles you have the more calories, fat and glucose you burn.
I'm just going to keep doing what I’m doing and see if it gets me where I want to be. I'm actually starting to see major results. I flexed for my gf a couple of days ago and she actually said that she was very jealous of my six pack. I don’t really have a six pack, (yet), but what I do have now is a fairly flat stomach. It’s a huge improvement from carrying around the 30 pounds of belly fat I had previously. I always joking called my belly my portable beer holder, since when I use to sit, it was large enough to set my beer on. Now I don’t drink much beer and I don’t have a belly, so no problem!
Have a great Friday and weekend everyone!
