    Thank you. I'm trying. I use to walk 6-12 miles a day and ate only salads for 6 months. Its how I came into remission with my diabetes.
    Now that im working more it's much more difficult to keep that up, and unfortunately my weight has increased but I'm trying to be more active again.

    I started my journey because I thought I was showing some signs of pre-diabetes (skin tags, dark armpits). I was consuming 3500 calories on a good day, so once I stuck to lowering that and walking 40 minutes to an hour a day, I was losing the weight sometimes at 10 lbs a week. What really helped me was sticking to pre-packaged frozen breakfasts and lunches that range from 300-600 calories. It took some adjusting, but it feels so normal now. At this point though, I've plateaued at losing weight by cutting calories and walking alone, so it's probably time for me to get a gym membership to take it even further.

    40 Mins a day and 10lbs a week is great progress. I also found that after losing about 50 lbs that it's much harder to lose anyrhing past that and the amount and frequency of excercise had to increase. My insulin I suspect helped with the weight loss but I was no longer on it within 6 months. And still I continued my 6-12 miles a day walk.
    Basically 1 mile(+) before and after every meal.

    Can't do that currently but I'm trying to get back into my 90-180 sit ups routine that I used to do before before I was in my 30s... It's pretty difficult tbh.

    You two radiate excitement. :D
    Looking cool, man~!!
    Btw, just read this, you might wanna consider an exercise called 'crunches' instead—I've heard again and again over the years that classic sit-ups can end up being quite bad for your spine or something. :shrug:
