I am NOT pre-diabetic anymore!

Hoping to inspire at least one person today that’s not sure of fasting.

I’ve been fasting 3 to 7 days, on and off, since March 24th. Some times I break my fast the next day, sometimes on day 2, or 3, or 4, etc and never feel bad about it.

I am officially NOT PRE-DIABETIC anymore, and at least 55lbs lighter. 6 belt loops smaller. Size 48 from size 52 pants.

I can now raise my desk and stand up for 1-2hrs typing away, when even 5 minutes used to be too much for my back in December-January.

I used to need compression socks, or you could see my edema when I took off my regular socks off, and the skin took forever to go back to normal. Not anymore! I can wear regular socks again now.

No issues tying up my shoe laces anymore, btw.

Aside from fasting, I am going to gym 3 times a week using the Mike Mentzer method. I do one warm up set and 1 to 2 sets til failure exercise. I never go longer than 25 minutes a day and rarely break a sweat. After the summer, I’ll jump back on my gravel and mountain bike though. I miss riding.

I have never been more helpful around the house and my wife is super appreciative of the change.
