One month checkup

I deleted my previous post, so I’ll summarize the before picture.

One month ago, 50 yo white male, 73” and 275 pounds got tests at 197 and 209.

My initial Rx was 100mg weekly, prescribed by NP at my urology office. At the advice of the group, I asked about twice a week subQ and she was down for it. I pin Wednesday at 10PM and Sunday 10AM.

Last week, my one month number was 449. Keep in mind I didn’t want to skew the results so I had my blood test in the trough, overdue for my injection by about 8 hours.

I also learned about the same time that I was edging closer to diabetic and was definitely prediabetic. I reduced to 1700 calories, swim 1000+ yards three times a week, life three times a week, have no more than 100 g of carbs daily, >35g of fiber, and >180g of protein. I also do 19:5 intermittent fasting. I have lost 10 pounds in the first month and I feel terrific.
