SCHWEET BRO!!! And yeah I thin kyour on the right track with no twatching the scales. If your hitting the weights a lot, like someone mentioned above, you may not see a dramatic weight loss, just a gradual re-shaping.... Good Stuff man!!!

Nope, Body For Life just wasn't workin' out for me. I'm following The Metabolic Typing Diet (There's a book by that title). Body For Life was givin' me too many carbs and my insulin resistant condition was playin' hell on me because of that.

Basically, according to the books I read on metabolic typing I'm a "Protein Type", meaning that I need to intake more proteins and good fats than carbs. I also have to really avoid simple carbs like sugar and starchy foods. I'm not doin' without carbs, I'm just reducin' 'em and restrictin' the types of carbs I eat.

It's workin' like a charm. As soon as I started followin' the suggested diet in the metabolic typing diet my health started improving and my energy levels shot through the roof. The great thing about metabolic typing is that it's not a "static", do this forever kind of thing. Ever so often you re-evaluate your type and change your diet to match your current metabolism type. It's not a one size fits all program like Body For Life, or Atkins. Metabolic typing focuses and fine tunes for individuals.

The two metabolic typing books I bought and read after a busa ridin' bro on another board suggested 'em contain the kind of information I've been lookin' for in a diet system all of my adult life. A lot of the tons of stuff I thought I had learned about what I should and shouldn't be eatin' went out the window. Awesome books!

Yeah, I'm hittin' the weights harder each week. I've come a long way since proper diet and some exercise reversed my Syndrome X symptoms. I can tell that my body is building it's self back up strong again. I've been increasin' intensity with the weights and on the treadmill and so far I haven't had the fatigue problem I had there to begin with if I overdone it on intensity. I guess my adrenal system is recoverin' from the years of bad eatin' and slack ass sittin' around all the time. Feels GREAT!!!

If you have any interest whatsoever in nutrition and health, the two books I bought are good reads.

To save you from havin' to dig and search, here's the titles and authors.

The Metabolic Typing Diet by William Wilcott and Trish Fahey

The Nutrition Solution: A Guide to Your Metabolic Type by Harold J. Kristal and James M. Haig.

Got both of them at Borders. Both were in store. Should be able to find 'em on the shelf at most any big book store.
