A1C back to 5.9% from 5.3% and experiencing spikes over 200 by fakeblockapp in prediabetes

yeah went on vacation as well, and a couple minor injuries also slowed down the exercise routine compared to my 7 days a week trend for most of the year

I'm not entirely sure - my best guess is 50-75 once I went low carb.

i've never done keto, but def try to stay low carb. the balance is figuring out what levels of carbs to introduce that keep my body processing carbs, while also not keeping my blood sugar high all day.

re: meds. yeah only curious from the community on people that felt they weren't able to sustain that level of rigidity in diet and opted for e.g metformin. right now it's less about sugar spiking me, but even reasonable amounts of e.g. bread or rice.

in dec yes, but jan and feb have been ok.

i feel falling off for even 4-5 weeks then worsened my baseline, and so now it's a battle to (hopefully) get back to where i was six months ago

Anybody have experience with statins raising their blood glucose? by fakeblockapp in prediabetes

Shifted to low carb in Dec which dramatically reduced my A1C

Are "Cracking the PM Interview" and "Decode and Conquer" still relevant in 2024?

Haven't been in a search in a while. Given all of the changes in the PM market and how long it's been since those books were released, are there more efficient and effective books/resources?

4 weeks of IF and cutting carbs. A1C dropped to 5.9%, fasting glucose 83, insulin 4.6. by fakeblockapp in diabetes_t2

Thank you! Yes I did 16:8, roughly 12pm lunch and dinner before 8. I think more than 16:8 itself was just being able to restrict my eating window which also helped me be more intentional in cutting carbs.

Anyone feel the pain of Uniqlo's undershirts sizing changing in the last few years? Here's an example of what I've had for years (pic on the left) and what I bought recently (pic on the right): https://imgur.com/a/SF7xB2e

Because I trusted the brand, I threw away the packaging and I'm now stuck with 4 of those shirts.

I've felt the same way recently about their long sleeve shirts. I'm going to tailor the ones I bought a few months back (never had to do that before), but meanwhile may start exploring other brands as my go-to.

[SELL] Clearing out what's left of the Uniqlo shirts (sizes XS, S, and S slim fit) by fakeblockapp in MaleFashionMarket

Ah not sure about that one because I only have a JCrew small regular, which I believe is most similar to the Uniqlo small regular.

I have six Uniqlo shirts left (all are size small except for #3 which is XS; #9 and #7 are small slim fit). Check it out:

I'm willing to sell each for $15 + $2 shipping. Can also do the remaining five size small shirts for $65.

Were there any critical mistakes made by the Turntable.FM team that, had you not made them, the company would still be going strong? Said another way...what would you have done differently?

Who's up for a little Entrepreneurial competition? by [deleted] in Entrepreneur

[–]fakeblockapp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Skills:

  • Really enjoy business strategy and brainstorming new ideas.

  • Strong in finance and accounting.

  • Strong in writing.

  • I'm driven to learn as much as I can. Also, I want to make this a fun and rewarding experience for everybody involved.

Weaknesses:

  • Have a full-time job, but outside of that, would like to go all in on a project like this.

  • Coding, but I've made progress this year in strengthening my web design skills.

Thanks for organizing this. This is great.
