losing 3.1 lb a week

A few tips from a visit to the doctor for advice while dieting:
1. Fat 9.2 Cal/g; Carbs 4 Cal/g; Protein 4 Cal/g; Alcohol 7 Cal/g
2. Okay to be on a 1000 Cal deficit diet; dropping too low is counter-productive since the body switches to a "starvation" mode!
3. Proteins trigger the sense of "being full" to the brain. Hence, a protein-rich diet is important. However, the process can take up to 20min; hence, eat slow and wait! Also, not all proteins are created equal - there are certain amino acids that the body cannot synthesise from others; hence a well-balanced intake of proteins is essential (corn and beans, or lentils and wheat, for eg.)
4. For fat-burning, one needs to maintain the aerobic metabolism phase which is indicated by the pulse being around 70% of the maximum heart rate or 0.7 x (220 - Your_Age)
5. If you have diabetes, make sure your blood sugar does not drop below 3M/m.

In trying to keep to the "five fruits or vegetable portions per day" I notice that my sugar is pushed up. Leaning to vegetables more than fruits might be better!
