re: Advice Needed: Dr wants me to drop 20 pounds

I’m 5’7 a little lighter than 190 (187) and I run 6 minute miles. Some people do genetically have an abnormal amount of muscle mass.
I am trying to drop weight for vanity reasons though. However when I go to the doctor I never get told to drop weight. It just doesn’t really need to happen for health reasons. I have BP 110/75, resting HR in the high 40s low 50s and great bloodwork.
Also I want to run faster. That’s a big motivator to drop down to 175.
I agree that OP is prolly not in the same boat because 1:12 for a 10K is slow as frick. No shade OP everyone has their pace but it’d be tough to make myself jog that slow on a warmup.
Just stop eating bad shite, OP

Eliminate refined sugars (NO SWEETS!) and fast food is a never.
Reduce quantity.
You’re already drinking less. Good.
Get to the fricking gym!

I’ll keep it pretty simple.
Don’t eat out.
Clear your pantry of all processed foods. The kids shouldn’t eat that shite either.
Eat meats, eggs, fruits, berries, cheese, nuts, whole milk yogurt, and veggies. Don’t keep bread and shite on hand.
Meal prep with a variety of the above ingredients with a focus on protein.
Excercise an hour 5 days a week.
If you do this, the 20 pounds won’t make a difference. You and your family will be healthier.

So. Looking for advice on good meal preps or diet to drop this weight.
And if you must eat carbs, go with the Louis Farrakhan diet...no white bread, white pasta, white rice, etc...eat only whole wheat bread, whole wheat pasta, brown rice, etc.

This is a bullshite excuse. Decide if you want to be fat or not. It’s really that simple. Cue the people coming in and calling me an a-hole, but I’m telling the truth.
You’re an a-hole.
In this instance, though, you’re a correct a-hole.
