Currently, I classify as an "overweight adult", which eventually can lead to obesity. Obesity and cardiovascular diseases are the two potential diseases I can get if I continue with my eating habits. Obesity will increase my chances of developing serious diseases and health conditions including type 2 diabetes. If I am diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, as long-term complications, I can get diabetic retinopathy, kidney disease (nephropathy), diabetic neuropathy, and macro vascular problems. Cardiovascular disease will affect how the heart pumps, and will make the body short of oxygen What I can do to avoid developing these severe diseases and to obtain a healthy lifestyle is to lose weight, and increasing my physical activity.

The outcome will be a much healthier lifestyle and will put me out of the overweight class *See attached diet intake and nutrient report as supporting documentation

Answer 1

C. As your current calorie intake exceeds your MSJ intake, it might not lead to weight loss. However, if you are very active, it might.

D. Your assessment of your current dietary habits and the things you need to work on is accurate. Incorporating more whole food, vegetables, lean meat, will be very beneficial as these are already low calorie substitutes. Swap all calorie dense and sugary food with healthiest alternative.
