[QUOTE="AloeSvea, post: 908850, member: 150927"] I haven't lost weight, after the initial 1kg loss, since being back in my own bathroom with the tried and truly scales. But I am getting some abs from a new crunchless ab routine I am doing about two or three times a week, with a Jackie Warner dvd, and, my waist and hips have been shaved of a centimetre each. I was surprised by this! Even though I am consciously attempting to bring my BGs down with muscle gain, as well as weight loss for the now elusive 'personal fat threshold' re my liver and pancreas function. My BGs seem to be going in waves - a few days of FBGs (which affect the whole day) in the high 6s and 7s, to a few days in mid to high 5s, to mid to high 6s. The neuropathy in my feet is noticeable when my BGs are in the higher wave. As is a feeling of despondency! But at least now I am having breakfast again, which I really like. And thinking ahead to my one day of fasting. Yes with a bit of trepidation. So I did some squats and felt better. (A walk also does the same thing. But the weather is grotty.) Doing the 15/9, and now the 6:1 - I think about its sustainability for the rest of my life - so I am very keen to find a 'eat stop eat' rhythm that suits me. [/QUOTE]
