Bottom line is, you can reverse metabolic disorder with diet and just a wee bit of exercise.

How I did it:

- OMAD - One meal a day. I eat one meal in the evening. No fast carbs. Any carbs in my meal come from vegetables low carb veggies.

- Effort to walk at least 10,000 steps. Easiest to fit these steps into your current lifestyle. Do things like park further from the store, take a couple extra laps in the store, take the stairs if you can, hunt mushrooms when not in season :).

Your body was taught to eat three times a day. It doesn’t need food that often if you feed it protein and slow carbs, like a caveman. I won’t kid you, it is hard to retrain your body to only get hungry around 4:00PM (for me), but it will adapt.

After one year, my A1C was 5.5 and my cholesterol was around 100. These numbers and my weight are steady after 5 years. My PCP was consulted and approved, but she still asks if I eat a low cholesterol diet. Guess she can’t help herself.
