6 years ago was pushing 295 and A1C numbers were indicating I was setting myself up for a big issue.
Cut out excessive sugar - no sugar in coffee, no Coke, no sweet tea (here in the south that is a big deal), and not pigging out on desserts (ie, at end of term when I get donuts for my students, I have one donut, not 3 or 5). No other real changes, and only the first two or three days of no sugar in the coffee sucked.
Down to 205 as of last week, belt has had 4 extra holes punched in it, and I really need new jeans and shorts - I can carry a full size pistol on a in-the-waistband holster on each side and still have room. Waiting until probably end of summer to hit 199 or less before I buy new clothes.
