[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What, pray tell, is “marginally pre-diabetic?”

If you want to lose 50, eat less and move more and cut down on carbs. That will do a lot to help your glucose too. You don’t need  Ozempic.[/quote]

my A1c is outside the normal range, but only a little.

yes, I do need Ozempic. I have been on a diet for the past 40 years.[/quote]

Stop doing diets. Eat a little less (of everything), and move more. Move every single day.

it's amazing that you are confident you know what my habits are.

i make more than 10k steps every day[b]. i can't eat little bit of everything, not long term[/b]. i my on intermittent fasting right now, which has worked best for my, historically, and i am waking multiple times every night with hunger pangs. [/quote]

[b]Why can't you eat a little bit of everything long term[/b]?

Respectfully, walking and 10k steps don't do much - it's quality, not quantity. 5k steps on stairs or hills, or adding in weights (that are challenging) will do more than simple walking.

because i tried to, many times, and i failed.

and i never said walking 10k was much. somebody said "get up and start moving" and wrote this to let them know that i am moving. but i am not going to run or to go to the gym. i tried all this, i hade 4 different trainers. they were great, and i learned a lot. many people grow to like exercise but not me.[b] i hate and i don't want to do it. [/b]

so if this is going to make some of you feel better, which, weirdly, seems like it will, i have put a lot of sweat equity into this already. i spent years feeling deprived from dieting. now, it seems like there is an easier way. i am old, i am still dealing with kids, and i am tired from being hungry and deprived with nothing to show for it. why are you so set against me losing some weight more easily? [/quote]

Wow, I can't believe your admitting you just don't *want* to exercise.[/quote]

All these threads end up the same if the posters are truthful. They don’t want to do the work and it’s “too hard.” This is so because at a population level people are conditioned now to expect life to be way too easy. Easy times, weak people and all that.
