this, this and again.. this :D

Lot of good advice given already. Everybody's diabetes is a bit different though, and everyone reacts differently to certain types of food, meds, activity etc. For me, exercise has been my best weapon so far. Well, it's a combo as I lost a lot of weight and changed my diet to low carb as well. But exercise had an immediate…

SW October: 186 GW October: 180 End of week 1: 183.6 End of week 2: 181.9 End of week 3: 180 sweet, reached my goal weight, wouldn't have expected the loss of the last week (to be pedantic, there would still be 1 day to go :D) as I was travelling 4 days with eating out 3 times a day.

SW October: 186 GW October: 180 End of week 1: 183.6 Down 2.4 , 3.6 to go

alright, final weigh-in for September: 186 , 7.2 down. Very happy

SW 193.3 End of Week 1: 191.8 End of Week 2: 189.8 End of Week 3: 188.5 CW: 186.5 down 6.8, 1.2 to go ... I actually did a further weigh in after my workout this morning, at 184.5 , but that doesn't really count, now does it :D I'm absolutely happy with the result in any case.

Totally in =)

In and done.. no weights, small and big circles

Allen Carr should have gotten a nobel prize of some sorts =) I did quit a week ago. I second the Little Monster comments. I do that too from time to time :D the book makes it so much easier compared to just using discipline and willpower.

SW 193.3 End of Week 1: 191.8 End of Week 2: 189.8 CW: 188.5 Down 4.8, 3.2 to go. Quite happy with it, as I was between 190 and 191 for the most days last week. Also was travelling for 3 days and didn't get any workout in during those days. Next week again travelling without workouts and with lots of eating out and…

in =)

done. 4:56 for 300. 62 kC used according to my FT7.

I'm in

Thx :) Yes, 25 and 50 pounds are dumbbells and 112.5 is a barbell

I'm in... and done =) I had finished my work out for today before, so I couldn't be bothered to warm up again.. so I did 100 with 25 pounds as warm up 50 with 50 pounds 50 with 112.5 pounds

in and done

SW 193.3 End of Week 1: 191.8 CW: 189.8 Down 3.5 , 8 might still be doable :)

SW 193.3 CW 191.8 down 1.5 :) a bit behind schedule, but I was actually at 194 2 days ago. Damn those fluctuations, hehe... that's why I actually prefer to weigh daily.

Gaultier - Le Male

Sepultura - Dead Embryonic Cells

aced the exercises which gave me trouble before on the P90x Leg & Back workout (this was my third), and after reading the thread about how difficult the pistol squat is, tried one.. and no, I didn't manage to do it, but the strength was were, the balance gave me trouble. and I will figure that out in the next days :)

Hmm, so, mine might be a bit boring in that regard, because for me it is health. I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, and I immediately knew that this was it. Enjoyed 3 more days of my favorite unhealthy food, and haven't looked back since. All the other things are just a bonus motivation, but there is only this one real…

everyday at home. Works for me, I don't get mad at the scale.

I have stretch marks myself... got them on my belly when I went from 215 to 225 pounds. Yes, when they are fresh , huge and red, it's not a pretty sight. But.. they will indeed fade over time, and once they are faded, the really aren't that bad anymore. I don't mind them at all now. I never tried out any creams or so, but…

Weight can fluctuate, so maybe weigh in again tomorrow and the day after, just to be sure...

True, but I think it's more so if you are insulin dependent. I could be of course very wrong here :)

Personally, I'm not controlling carbs as much (though currently I'm doing lower carb until I reached my goal weight), but what kind of carbs and what their glycaemic index is. The higher the glycaemic index is, the higher the blood glucose spike is. I don't follow that religiously, but it's also quite easy. Just go with…

I think that should be rather related to natural fluctuation of your weight, a single donut cannot in any universe cause you to gain 3 pounds. roughly 10500 calories are needed for 3 pounds.. that must have been a huuuuuuuuge donut ;-)

It's the pancreas, not the liver, and it is typically diabetes type 2. Go see a doc and get blood work done, then you will know. Lowering insulin resistance naturally? Yes, eat healthy, lose weight and work out. I was just recently diagnosed with it, and I was able to get it under control within a short amount of time (at…
