Jun 2015

Currently I am taking 80 units of Lantus once a day, 1000 mg Metformin 2 times daily and some ridiculously expensive thing called Onglyza 5 mgs 1 daily. I really enjoy riding, it clears my head and if I can lower my drug load that will be a big plus. My weight is holding steady at 195. I thought I would tape my chest, belly and thighs. The 3 times I've done this chest is increasing, belly decreasing and thighs are bigger. I think there is a theory that belly fat increases insulin resistance, could be, I'll take any improvement.

Maybe I can drive down to lovely Wharton and we can do a little riding together, just for fun.
