[QUOTE="patrickcudd, post: 2008328, member: 196"] Here is what I've done. In August of 2011, my doc said I had Type 2 Diabetes after a routine visit. He prescribed me three different meds and said I needed to loose some weight. I am 6'0" and weighed 275 on a good day. I was in a size 42 jeans and wore a 3XL shirt. I started to research diets, as I wanted to loose a few pounds before I started working out so I didn't kill my knees and feet. What I found was the Primal Diet/Lifestyle. It required elimination of all sugars, grains and starches. There is a lot more to it, but this is the basics. Believe me, this was not an easy transition, as spuds were part of every meal for me. I started this in mid-August. After a few weeks, the weight was dropping fast. If I would reach a plateau, I would shock my system with a few carbs, and the weight would start to come off again. By January of 2012, I had lost 70 pounds and was down to 205. I've stayed at that weight ever since. My doc took me off of all my meds and my A1C was down to 4.9. My current jeans size is 34 and I'm wearing a size XL shirt. I've also started Crossfit over the summer.
