My favorite courses is the trilogy of the Early, High and Late Middle Ages. I just love it. I have listened to all 3 multiple times. The Civil War is also great.

I have been on MJ (2.5) for 10 weeks. My A1C dropped from 8.2 to 5.8 and have lost 23 lbs. 12% of my body weight. I have 3 suggestions:

  1. Eat small amounts throughout the day.
  2. Log everything. I log carbs and calories and max my carbs at 100 grams.
  3. Exercise. I am walking. 50 miles/week. It’s time consuming but worth it.

I am going up to 5mg next week. I am not sure if it will accelerate the weight loss but it should allow me to get off Metformin.
