Supporting observations of previous studies that resistance training and higher muscle mass protect against Type 2 diabetes (T2D), a new observational longitudinal study of over 140,000 people followed for 8 years found that muscle strength, as measured by grip strength divided by fat-free body mass, is also associated with a lower risk of T2D.

. I would say half of the days are easy and half are really difficult and I still use nicotine mints and gum the amount depends on the day but on the whole it’s getting less. I am still shocked that I’m managing to stick with this and I’m truly proud of myself. Also I’m loving that I can say I haven’t smoked this year 
and as the days are ticking along being able to say this means more.
