Yes, if your blood sugar is elevated, that will fix it along with accomplishing weight loss

Visceral fat is the hardest part for me to work on.

 

[jjgold]

There is that great diabetes medication, but they’re clamping down on who can get it

I'm definitely trying to be more conscientious of what I'm eating as far as calories are concerned. Drinking a lot more diet / no sugar products even though I don't think they are the greatest in their own right with aspartame. I've been drinking a lot of sparkling water as well and the brand I buy has no aspartame. All natural

Bobby, I had my blood work done and was found to be pre-diabetic so I cut out half the carbs I usually ate. I can still have all my old favorites, just half the carb parts. I also eat carrots/broccoli/cauliflower in Ranch dressing or a salad instead of french fries with a burger. I also buy keto flour to make pizza at home. Tastes just as good as restaurant pizza.

I lost 15 pounds and was no longer pre-diabetic.

Stick to high protein foods will fill you up. If you get into a rhythm where you rarely eat significant carbs or sugar, the fat will fly off. If you lift some weights you'll feel even better.

Why are Americans all addicted to those shit carbonated beverages??

Bobby bump up the water intake - you can do a gallon a day.

Go for daily walks.

Cut out the crap foods.

You will be fine and shed those first 20 lbs no problem.

I've been trying to cut out the carbs. Haven't had a good pasta dish in a while and that's one of my favorites. I'm just trying to be more conscientious of what I'm eating and how much of what I'm eating. I think I could still enjoy some things that I like but just not eat as much

I know I currently don't drink enough water. Been trying to drink more sparkling water to get some but I know I need to stick to straight regular water. I've been trying to walk more. Rather than driving to get the mail down the block I have started to walk. It's not far but at least it's a start

I got a gym membership a few months ago and honestly I haven't been yet. I know I need to go as I'm sure it will help but I'm trying to diet part first and will eventually get into the gym portion of it. I know once I start to do that it will be even easier

Visceral fat is the hardest part for me to work on.

I'm not even sure what that is. The scale I bought gives a lot of data as I posted above but some of it I'm not understanding

"Visceral fat is belly fat found deep within your abdominal cavity. It surrounds important organs, including your stomach, liver and intestines. It's different than subcutaneous fat, which is fat just below your skin. Visceral fat is actually more dangerous to your health."

I love to eat chicharron/lechon.. that's why it's hard for me to lower my visceral fat. I know the normal range is between 1 to 12.

Where did you buy your scale, Bob? Amazon?

 

[jjgold]

Bobby got to do steroids also under supervision it’ll shred everything

Where did you buy your scale, Bob? Amazon?

Yes. Was only $22. I think that's a pretty good deal considering all the data it gives you and it syncs with other apps as well

[BMR Genie]

Water intake key. Cutting out sugary drinks and even alcohol will automatically reduce your weight a nice chunk in just 3-4 weeks and youll feel so much better. Many of us are dehydrated because of what we eat and drink
