I've been working out six months I have dropped 4 inches off my waist lost 40pounds and turn 30 of it back into solid muscle not too bad for 48 yr old guy. I am a highly motivated person.

    Type 1 here lost 50 pounds over 6 1/2 years ago and my numbers are perfect. Still suffer from Neuropathy, but its under control and I love to walk for exercise.

    Well done!
