This can become a controversial post but I do not want this to become one. Hence clarifying some points in the beginning. I am using a medical term here and I am fully aware of it. This post is not for people who are not mentally of physically ready to face the consequences of hypoglycemia. I mean hypoglycemia can be a serious condition and people can faint and might need immediate medical attention.
The title should be read as (While reducing weight) little hypoglycemia is okay for me! This post should be read in continuation of the previous post where I am sharing my thoughts / experiences while reducing weight. But for those who have not read my previous post, I would like to share in brief what it is all about. I am trying to reduce weight and documenting my thoughts during this process. I am doing it for me. I am in the correct mindset of weight reduction now and I do not remain so all the times. These posts are a reminder to me if I forget what my thoughts were when I was in the right mindset for weight reduction. But why not to let others benefit from my thoughts if they can be is the thought behind writing these posts.
After following Dr. Jagannath Dixit for long time on YouTube, I found that his inspiration is Dr. Shreekant Jichkar so I found about him and found some of his talks. He has explained very well that unless there will be some hypoglycemia, glucagon cannot be released and this glucagon is natural fat burning hormone! So hypoglycemia means we are in the process of burning fat.
Hypoglycemia makes you feel a little dizzy and weak. One also feels little irritation at the level of mind and I feel that I am easily provocated with little stimulus. Its also difficult to concentrate for sometime and I find difficulty in sleeping if I have not eaten anything.
The list can be increased and there are other symptoms as well. But what I want to point out here is that I am ready to face all these things because I know that I am reducing weight and little discomfort is okay. How much discomfort is little and how much of it is too much is very subjective. It is not easy to define.
I feel happy now a days when there is little hypoglycemia. Because I am aware that now glucagon has started its function. Its visible to me on weighing scale as well.
I would request readers to not to misunderstand me. I am nowhere saying that one has to do these experiments on their own by reading this blog. I am also not saying that consultation of nutritionist and physicians is not needed. It is very well needed and it must be taken whenever needed.
I am just documenting my experiences / thoughts when I am in a very positive state of mind. Because I do not remain always in this positive state of mind. I lose control many times and then I eat whatever I want and whatever quantity I want but after eating I say again to myself - "I will try again to win this temptation to overeat." Yes, let me confess that I overeat. In fact many of us do overeat and overeating has become a culture now. But it is injurious to health and at least when it is injurious I mean when it has gone to proportions when it is injurious, then at least we should stop or should try to control overeating.
The consequences of obesity are so much dreadful that I am happy to have little hypoglycemia now!
