[QUOTE="mekalu2k4, post: 845630, member: 171561"] This is a standard pattern of human body reaction. So be glad that your body is reacting as majority humans do, then you know what/ how to adjust your diet. Limit your carbs intake to daily minimum requirements. This is very good achievement. Try to maintain this bmi of 22.4. However, BMI is not a good parameter to work with; it is only target 1. Now move on to next targets. 1. Measure your body fat, that is a good parameter to work with to keep T2D in check. Digital bathroom scales will tell your body fat. I use this [URL]http://www.amazon.com/GoWISE-USA-Digital-Bathroom-Scale/dp/B00CZPF5L2/[/URL] - it is working fine. Look up on internet for charts for body fat ranges; Once you measure, then you know what to work on. 2. your waist measurement. An experienced athlete told me to keep my waist around 33 inches. But it is for me. 4. What is your blood pressure? It will go low due to lower bmi. Mine is 105/65. it used to be 140/95 5. Exercise: Weekly target of 200 min [internet says 150min]. BE Careful: Avoid exercise if you cannot for any reason; Do not injure yourself. Not everyone can run [I was obese in the past, could not walk at all; forget about running; but my BMI is now 23.5, I run now - at 5kmph for 10 min non-stop, with incline on treadmill], but if you can do cardio that is great. Now I do exercise for 90 min everyday; do sweat a lot - just to ensure my body fat, weight in check. 6. Diet: Limit your carbs. Again - if you have a digital bathroom scale and see your readings daily; then you know how your weight is changing for different foods. Naturally, you adjust your diet over few weeks. After that, it is only maintaining the pattern. I tried to take raw diet, but failed. But I am on restricted carb diet for long. I tried LCLF recently, my body fat went up, so I stopped and now back to LCLF diet, for me around 1200 cal per day works, but you need to find yourself for your body. This test is enough as it averages for last 3 months. Just that we need to get this done now and then. I get this done every 6 months, May be you can do with lesser frequency, after a while you will adjust yourself. I do complete blood work once in every year, as mandatory requirement of my job. This helps in understanding lipids etc which is equally important. Be active on the forum, to update your status. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
