@buddymartin71 I’m …
I like your idea of taking two wks off of working out then starting up again. (I have had success with that in the past, thanks for reminding me!) That would have to be better than reducing good nutrition. I look forward to my ‘green shakes’ since I don’t enjoy raw veggies right now, and I do feel a tremendous difference in my well being. Thanks for your input!
@buddymartin71 I’m way ahead of you there! thankfully I have gotten plenty of info and have had any misinformation corrected.

@ppattibpatt Here …
@ppattibpatt Here is another thought that might help with the plateau & with diabetes. You could move your diet more towards leafy greens. The closer that leafy greens get to being your biggest food source, I think the better off you will be.
If you eat meat, try to eat vegetables first. Maybe even eat some kinda vegetables while making dinner. Eating some vegetables before dinner has the double benefit of eating more frequently and with smaller portions during each sitting

@ppattibpatt I think the basic idea to break through plateaus is to change things up. Even if you slow down your weight loss efforts for a week or two and gain a few back, then start over again. If you need to be really careful with diet, then don’t mess with that. Do what you know is best. Change the excercises up. take a week or two off and then get back into it. Remember I am lay person. Just my thoughts as requested.

@buddymartin71 I totally agree with what you’re saying, but I still wonder, if and when I hit a plateau, what are my alternatives? Any thoughts?

@ppattibpatt The …
@ppattibpatt The reason I think it might work for you is that most diseases have their root cause in the food that we eat. Even diseases that seem unrelated to food may very well be a direct result of what we eat over the years.
I have been told I am prone to getting diabetes per my genes. I actually had my first abnormal sugar level reading a few months ago, but it was normal the next time. Mine is from a fatty liver and 25 extra pounds all caused by my love for cheese, meat, and sugar.

@ppattibpatt I am not an expert, but I wonder if a Raw Living plant based diet might be able to prevent you from getting diabetes. I hope you never do get diabetes.
I am working on “starting” the transition to a raw living diet. I am gonna see how it goes. I actually think it can be easy if you feed yourself properly with it. I have seen some really great things about it. Search for videos with key word “Lou Corona”. Amazing stuff.

I understand what …
I understand what you’re trying to say about ‘cycling’ the diet for 3 days, but personally speaking, I was told I was pre-diabetic and keeping a steady carb count is important, so the fasting for one day isn’t really a good idea for me.
That being said, would just lowering the calories while reducing carbs mildly for that day work in the same manner with similar results? Would that be enough to help get over a plateau?
