I hated it because crash diets are not sustainable
They were too restrictive and I was always left hungry or craving more food.
And I always caved, binge ate, and gained all the weight back.
As a result, my insulin resistance got much worse
I would be in and out of the doctor's office…
…And sometimes, the hospital...
All of a sudden, my mortality was staring me dead in the face.
I couldn’t ignore it anymore due to the poor state of my health.
I had goals, dreams and aspirations...
...I wanted more out of life...
...and crashing dieting or taking more medication to my grave wasn't going to work.
So I did what everyone else out there does in this situation.
I started looking for a way out.
I looked everywhere and a few months later I found it.
I stumbled upon a Reddit forum where a group of adults.
They were talking about weight loss amongst Pre and Type 2 Diabetics.
And how they were able to burn fat while reversing their Pre or Type 2 Diabetes
I read more...
They were talking about how to properly manage and lower the secretion of the hormone “insulin” by lowering their blood sugar long term…
…Their methods allowed them to eat more food, have more energy, and crush cravings.
Without counting calories or dwindling their portions to nothing
While losing tons weight...
And lowering their blood sugar and insulin levels…
That they could actually make healthy meals they enjoyed eating.
This made the program easy to stick to
All through the concept of Flexible Eating
This was a cool concept to me.
As I researched more and more I found that most of them were just like me.
They were also busy professionals with so many personal obligations that made life quite hectic.
Overtime, they let their weight and health get away from them.
They slowly gained weight and watched their body change.
They developed the same symptoms!
Weight gain, high blood sugar, and much more...
Chronic Fatigue, Brain Fog, Blurry Vision..
...Hypertension, High Cholesterol, High Blood Sugar, Fatty Liver…
...Numbness in the hands and feet…
...They tried all the diets.
Only to have none of them work past a few weeks.
Always losing weight and then gaining it all back.
They went to the doctor and were diagnosed with pre or type 2 diabetes…
...The doctor immediately prescribed them medication…
...Many often used the medication and it worked at first…
...But they would eventually need higher doses, as their bodies adjusted to the medications…
...Making the side effects worse…
So they trying to fix it with restrictive diets and supplements again…
...Having long term success with none of them...
The only difference was they learned correct foods and habits that allowed them to lose weight
Lower their blood sugar and insulin levels.
And make the process enjoyable, and sustain the results.
They focused on flexible eating
And creating a lifestyle around healthy habits that burn fat and lower your blood sugar
