Explanation: male, 38, 130 pounds. Skinny, low muscle mass but have a beer keg belly.
My day is 7am wake up. Get kids to school. Work until 5. Get kids from school. Cook, shower and then I’m exhausted AF.
I’m semi fit? I’m a mechanic professionally and spring til summer I mountain bike regularly. So my calves are monsters.
But would like… basic at home sit ups. Push ups etc like on a Saturday, would that help at all?
Any time, happy to answer any questions you may have. You can look at your last lipid panel, and look at the TG/HDL ratio, if its less then 1 then your insulin sensitive, but the higher it is over 1, the more insulin resistant you are. Insulin sensitivity is the real measure of metabolic health!

Some people who can’t do low carb do time restricted eating, or intermittent fasting, i.e. one or two meals per day. This can also improve your insulin levels, the longer you can go without sugar the better for the body. This works, but I think its doing it on hard mode, because its like edging with sugar cravings, but it works for people who can’t give up their breads :)
i already eat 2 meals a day :( im doomed!
hahah, not doomed! Its a solvable problem.
Get a GCM, strap it on, see how your blood sugar is doing! Maybe move your bread to one meal a day. It takes like 4-5 hours to get all the sugar out of the blood after a meal, so one meal + 5 hours, 6 hours a day of sugar, 18 hours a day of no sugar… Could be enough time to let your body resolve the visceral fat.
