It’s better to be pre diabetic than post diabetic

½6ish I won't eat again until ½5

Is that PM to AM, or PM to PM?

 

[Bod ...]

I should have said ½¹⁸ish till ½⁵ish

 

[Mottie]

I should have said ½¹⁸ish till ½⁵ish

And only then you will break your fast……

And only then you will break your fast……

A mate of mine was insulin Type 2 for years, he had a stroke in 2020, after treatment he was no longer diabetic

I wish! I’m 5’11” and 17st 2lbs.

WTF

 

[Mottie]

WTF

After my first swim session and chasing after a runaway dog yesterday, for the first time in a year I’ve gone under 17st. - 16st 13 and a quarter pounds to be precise.

Mind you he has lost peripheral vision, balance, had a pacemaker fitted, cataracts removed, wears hearing aids and can't tell the time or use a phone

@Mottie I know you and Mrs Mottie are good cooks, but I would recommend trying Gusto or Hello Fresh for a few weeks to see how you get on.

I use hello fresh when I needed to lose weight. Not only can you pick the lighter meals (calorie-wise) if you want, but the key thing was the portion control. They give you exactly the right amount of all the ingredients, and while I often found myself looking at the plate and thinking there wasn't 'enough' there, actually it was perfect fine portion wise.

I also did calorie counting and couch to 5km at the same time and managed to shed 22kg in 4 months, but I went at it pretty hard.

Best of luck with whatever method you try. I found the first week the hardest, so just keep busy. After that your body adjusts to whatever diet/regime you've switched to.
