What kind of exercise do you do at the gym, mainly cardiovascular such as treadmill or rowing or mainly strength such as weight training. Muscle is much heavier than fat so it is possible that you may not be losing weight as such but seeing benefit through swapping muscle for fat. Do your clothes feel any different?

What I do is: 5 min warm up on cross trainer at effort 2 followed by another 5 on cross trainer at effort 4, then I do chest press 3 x 12 30kg, vertical traction 3 x 12 40kg, shoulder press 3 x 8-10 10kg, tricep pushdown 2 x 12 3kg, bicep curls 2 x 12 6kg, arm bike 5 min effort 3, upright bike 5 min effort 4 and recline bike 5 min effort 5.
I clothes feel looser, especially my jeans.
Most people (experts) believe that diet is 80% and exercise 20%. What are you eating? Are you testing before and 2 hours after eating?
I'm eating eggs, bacon, tomato, peppers, chicken, granola, go ahead bars, breaded chicken with different fillings such as broccoli and chesse, ham and chesse and chorizo and cheese. but lately i've just been binging on everything that i should not have and yesterday was the worst day for me as I had 2 bowls of porridge, 2 hours later had a pot of granola with yoghurt and then a mini sushi ready meal, followed by at 1 with 2 go ahead bars and a mars bar. When I got back from uni I was still starving and ordered a pizza with nachos, 2 cans of diet coke and a cheescake slice.
I have not been testing since June thanks to my GP at home, but today I got 300 testing strips for when I start lixisenatide tomorrow.
