The side effects do subside, but it's a slow thing for sure. For me about a month, but after a week I could see a little progress and it continued slowly! Your body will adapt and it's worth sticking it out. Friend some people who have had type 2 for a while who have made progress and have an open diary. Pay attention to…

Fit into jean's I hadn't worn in over 3 1/2 years! 14" smaller than my starting size! Feeling great, Like progress is really happening. Happy for a moment or two, then off to the gym!

1. Lost 6" in my waist and pant's are unwearable, had to get new one's three sizes smaller! 2. Shoes are getting loose! 3. Jaw line, collar bone, veins in hands and feet are all starting to show who knew they were there, welcome to the party!!

Fantastic!

Routines work well for some people. I prefer a flexible workout that allows me to mix it up when I'm in the mood or not. I still know what needs to be worked on and what I haven't worked on, so I get to it in time just a little less rigidly. I know a good strict routine, done well, should bring quicker, better results, but…

Watch your sodium, prob. holding water! high all the time, fried noodles and a few other things adding that up!

Your activity level is your normal routine everyday! Four workouts a week is great but your normal activity is before or without your workouts and you can log your workout's separately to log your calories burned so you get credit. Then chose to eat back some or all of those calories if you want.

Like your PT's advice, WW can and does work, but for me MFP is the way to go. CICO is direct, simple, straight forward and easier.

The same volume of muscle and fat do not weigh the same, say 1 gal. of each.

Anything in the pool would be ideal!

Dedication and resolve seem to get me to hit my goals. As I hit those goals I get motivated to keep on to the next one and so on! Motivations and goals change, dedication and resolve are your rocks. B)

Easy .5 piece multi grain low cab flat bread, two pieces of fruit eat one before lunch one after and left over protein from night before around 5 to 6 oz depends.

Reread OP with that small incline; if you match speed total push on burn, do what you like best!
-
As far as calories burned treadmill all the way. It's the controlled speed and incline. Incline alone can triple calories burned and your speed well stay where you put it. It's boring and if you can match speed and incline it's a push! and outdoors seems a much better way for me to pass the time!

Red all work, but all eyes on you all night, Red ;)

Great work Nancy, really remarkable!! :)

Pasta will not be your low carb day but I have my one serving 2oz dry and add equal amount of mushrooms then sauce which has carbs as well. Any non starch veg. prob. works the same to give volume at low cost though! Also I make sure my slightly higher carb days are gym days to take advantage of those carbs or energy.

Put the past out of mind, start fresh one day at a time one pound at a time one positive thought and so on. You can go as far as you want! You are your only road block! Hoping you make it happen!!

Stay hydrated!!, eat what you can keep down (brat diet?) but most importantly hydration!!

Congratulations!! It does get easier over time. For me this is not an option I just don't want it. It will not help me achieve my goals and I'm very happy not to have this option, I've worked to hard to lose any ground with that crap. Your on your way, glad to see your success.

Get a substitute, a healthy one, because sometimes cutting back still is going to make you want more. So get rid and don't look back. Replacement should be healthy eventually sweet treats will be to sweet and not taste as good .

Wow, what a transformation, Your hard work is really paying off!

You can do this. Put yourself (your getting health self) as your #1 priority and make it happen no matter what. Sounds selfish but a healthy and fit you can handle all the other things that are wrong or need addressing much better. Will send request, I have an open diary, check it out. Only you can control your progress…

Ok, question BCAA, expensive waist of money or could I benefit from adding in? Background; been in deficit for more or less 14 months and lost 131 lbs (maintained for 2.5 month between Christmas and Easter as a break). I know I cant bulk much, if at all in deficit, but I,ve seen a small amount of gain anyway. Only lifted…

I go through the same thing over and over. Water for me is the problem, a day off the gym and I gain. Last week I put on 3lbs over night. Diet is locked down and it takes 3500 cals. to gain a pound so its not possible. It took 5 days to sweat it off. When its hot out I increase water no way around it. Loss graph goes up…

Go slow, testing it out a little at a time, to get back to full bore and don't push it. B)
