Let's get physical

I can’t skip meals…it actually helps my sugar levels if I pretty much nibible on something all day. …

If I skip meals it drops too low and then it takes alot to get it back where it needs to be…

If I eat bigger meals because I skipped a meal then it goes too high.

It’s better for me if I make the right food choices but eat nibbles almost all day. It stays at good place and level, the ups and downs really mess with me.

Get some chalk, or duct tape, mark sigils and stuff on the floor, step from one point to another like single-plane step aerobics maybe, for the length of one short song, then increase time? :smiley:

Should be quite low-impact if you do bare feet and indoors, not thudding a trainered heel down on a hard gym.

Im gonna try incorperating this into my staff workouts :alien: should be interesting since my practice already has an effect on what these turn into at times as i use them both for working out and for grounding.

Ah, fair enough. I only mentioned intermittent fasting because apparently it can work well with diabetics depending on your type and whether or not you take medication for it:

But yeah, if skipping meals knocks you out just try to stay away from carbs. Apparently low-carb diets can be pretty effective at resolving diabetes too for some folks (gets their blood sugar levels into a non-diabetic range without the help of medication).

I’m doing burpees and walking for exercise, and I plan on re-examining my diet. I’m gonna be lean and mean when I’m done.

But yeah, burpees are insane with how much they can do. They lean and tone muscle, burn a fuckton of fat/calories, and they don’t fuck your joints too bad.

I can testify to The benefit of watching carbohydrate intake for weight loss. The most important thing is to stay away from the simple carbohydrates, which unfortunately is found in most of the Standard American Diet (S.A.D.). Eat lots more fresh vegetables and decent quality meat (not hot dogs, bologna, etc.). Steer clear of artificial sweeteners. I could go on and on.

Years ago the situation improved, but I guess I’m still underweight. Yesterday I resumed push-ups (and at every beginning I can do only a few of them) although, being that I like to have a “small routine”, I’m a bit undecided between that exercise or using dumbbells.

He you go we don’t want Gym idiots.

Losing weight is a lot easier than most people think the challange is staying that way. Exercise is important. Cardio and also simple exercises like push ups and such. Eating healthy is also very important as long as you dont work yourself out about it. Its ok to cheat from time to time. Most importantly dont think about it. Think of this ordeal as a phase or way of life. Dont give 2 fucks about results and they will come sooner than you tjink. Im talking from experience. I lost up to 20 lbs 6n 1 to 3 months a couple of times in my life.

I am a diabetic as well, recently I found out that casual walking long distances and ping pong help a lot since you constantly move around. Also, believe it or not, freesbee throwing with a partner helps you burn calories and get in shape :wink:

Drink plenty of water. At least eight glasses a day or up to a gallon.

You should checkout Dr.McGregor’s cookbook “How not to die” and Nutritionfacts.org. He is a doctor and avid scientific researcher, he has plenty of video on his website and YouTube page concerning diet and nutrition.
