Funny thing is that if he skipped the drugs and just ate normal, he could lose 4-5 lbs/week or more.

Good for you! What’s it cost per month? How long have you been taking it?
I’ve been taking it about a year. It only costs me $60 a month, but I have very good insurance through my pension.

Good going on your weight loss w mounjaro.
Make that ozempic
What about good, ol’ fashioned (and cheap) metformin?
It takes a few months to ramp up to the effective dose, but it causes weight loss and controls blood sugar?
Are you saying you're 100 years old? Because I don't think that's what you mean, but...?
I have lost over 100 pounds. Sorry for the confusion.
“If I can’t get out and exercise, then I deserve having a spare tire around my mid section.”
Completely respectfully and acknowledging that opinions vary, my own view (and personal experience FWIW) is: weight loss is overwhelmingly about what and how you eat and exercise plays only a comparatively very modest role. If you eat sugar-free & low carb and only consume calories during a one-hour period each day, your body’s form will quickly revert to how it is designed to be, regardless of exercise, and be healthier than anything a pill can deliver. I once thought this sounded crazy and unsustainable. It turns out not to be. I recommend youtube videos by Mark Hyman, Eric Berg, Eric Westman, Sten Ekberg - each with a bit different emphases but overall headed in a similar direction.
I tend to agree.
I’ll check them out, thanks.
No worries, good luck. What these guys recommend does work. Some nuances between them but I think any of them will work but only if you go all in, because half-measures won’t work at all. Of the four I mentioned, I am least in favor of the Dr. Eric Westman approach because it is strictly low carb without much emphasis on the quality of ingredients. No doubt, he’s a solid guy who knows his stuff but personally I lean more towards “clean” low carb 23:1 OMAD. But almost anything is better than the Standard American Diet (SAD) of sugar and potatoes and seed oils and lots of snacks, with a Diet Coke chaser.

Did his best against the Bulls after Phoenix signed him.
I always respected his honesty.
That’s just turrible.
