Writing from Mexico, right on the Texas border...

48 years old, type 2 diabetes diagnosed around 3 years back, 6'4" — 330lbs on May 11 and 317.5lbs on Jun 11. I cleaned some things up, got onto metformin, and saw progress, though weight was never easy to move...

Then a couple of months back an acquaintance said he was selling this T thing. Until he named his price I'd only known the patented version, and with me unemployed that was never within reach — his number was hard to believe. He'd been supplying a circle of friends for roughly a year, all of them with results, some excellent and some not.

So I tried it. My wife wanted bloodwork and a doctor's approval first (party pooper) and she was right (not party pooper) — Hashimoto's hypothyroidsm, confirmed by an ultrasound and further studies. Sad news, honestly, but also a relief: it explained a lot of what I'd been dealing with and blamed on getting older....

It's gone well, which is exactly what got me worried. What happens if my friend changes jobs and the sweet hookup disappears? Time to go grey.... So here I am, learning my way around a world I knew nothing about. Scammers have come after me and I've dodged them so far; even a simple reverse image search was enough to expose reddit users faking credibility...

A carrier should be here soon with a year's worth of freeze dried sources of joy, and apparently some family members are watching my progress closely.

Fasted blood glucose used to average 142; now it averages 110, and I'm hoping for more improvement.

The sleep apnea has essentially disappeared.

Less sleep, better rested.

My body still looks the same to me, though at my size change only really shows after something like 20lbs lost.

I was annoyed to find US sellers offering free shipping while Mexico cost 50USD to reach, but it's worth every bit of it regardless. Hopefully a job turns up soon so I can afford another couple more year lol....
