When you had the apparent loss of control had your weight gone up?
That really makes a difference with me. There is a theshold that I know of that I must avoid.
No change in weight. I’m thinking stress related issues. Got to control that a bit better.
Here is my situation. I probably was borderline with type 2 diabetes before I took my current job but because of a lot of circumstance I now am on the road 4 hours a day commuting, behind a desk or in meetings 9-10 hours per day, and still on call 24/7 every other week (technically every day of my life). Very busy and stressful job so I do not get a lot of exercise and I eat fast food/junk often because I do not have time for lunch in a normal manner. Have only put on 10 pounds but probably another 5-10 has converted from muscle to fat over 10 years. Yes if I could lose probably 15 pounds and convert another 10 to lean muscle I suspect my A1C would be within range again.
See no way to work that out right now until one of two things happens. I either get a job offer that pays me close to what I make right now but the commute is not 220 miles per day (will not move to where I work) OR I hang in 3 more years when all 3 of my children will be out of college and I can downsize my job and other things and relax a little more.
