Hi All,
Roy is the name, or my alter ego...Ha
My typing prowess will have to be excused - never been a strength, and neither has putting myself into words.
Where to even start is beyond me, so it'll just get shot strait from the hip.
Late 40's is my age, and over the past year and half my whole “joie de vivre” has disappeared on me. Even just typing that made me cry, and why is beyond me.
Postive to a fault has always been my way and now even that is gone. So beyond desperate is about the least i can say. Asking for help is very hard but help is what I need.
My family and my business need me but the direction to get healthy cant be found. TRT came first as a try, but my hair started to fall out immediately and the help form the doc was meh..
The doctor route was a first for me in my life and good healthcare was there, a sleep test was just about to get done and work was getting done to maybe start i think it was zepbound - and then the rug got yanked out from under me. My healthcare plan was basically dropped, no reason given, they said a form wasn't filled out... Since the shutdown, unfortunately, nothing can be done to even get another plan till they file something that i cant even contact them about. Like what?? Absolutely absurd i know. Ehh what i m gonna do. So doing it myself is what i started looking into. and after many months i started to actually read. And Reddit took me here. A bunch has already been learned that i didn't know and more is what i look forward to learning. This is wanted for me but a skeptic is what im and I'll admit scared to even ask but help and guidance are what I need.
Being obese is what my whole life has looked like, from the age of 8 or 9 on. Belly issues were always there, every thing under the sun got tried.
in my late 30's, cleansing and fasting brought some success. The stress in my life threw me for a loop though.
For the lack of a better phrase i feel flat. Roughly 150 lbs. over weight, and everything hurts. Complicated is what my family life is, and time to concentrate on me is scarce, so a push is what's needed here. In reddit, hundreds of posts about how reta changed there life have been read. Then one from yesterday got read that lit something in me to actually do something. I mean what's the alternative.. Well I Know the alternative so a shot is what I'm giving this. Any help is wanted.
Thank You
