unhealthy indulgent meals are one of the only comforts in my life. I look forward to it, it excites me, and makes me relaxed. When I go on diets I start to have almost claustrophobic anxiety throughout the day knowing a satisfying filling high caloric meal isn’t coming. I was at 266 last fall, got down to 220 this spring. Now I’m back up to 233. Insurance won’t approve Wegovy because I’m not big enough. I go through waves of motivation to lose weight, and I’m currently in an unmotivated era. High cholesterol, high A1C, high BP, and none of it is waking me up to stop my habits.

I hear that. Rx medication contrave worked well for me. It really took the edge off. Look into it if you haven’t already. It might help.

I love being able to follow your weight loss journey and how honest you are about it, even when you feel disappointed or feel set back. But it's really not a setback! As long as you keep steadily going and going at your own pace (like you keep on saying!) you will hit your goal eventually! 😊 I feel like my entire life has been both a weight loss and a weight gain journey. I've fluctuated a lot, personally, and I'm at a very high point from where I've been for most of my adult life currently, so I'm not used to my current weight even though I've been here before. I've had a lot of rapid weight gain over a little over the past year due to the psychiatric medication I've been put on since mid last year. Only a month and a half ago or so I've started Topamax and now it's started to help me lose weight thankfully (which is _HUGE,_ because this _entire time_ I've been _gaining!),_ so I'm super grateful for that. I really hope (even if it has to be with the help of _another_ medication) I can fit back into my wardrobe and come back to a stable baseline again. Also, I'm actually unsure of the largest weight I was at my heaviest. I just know my dress size since I didn't have access to a scale and I had an abusive childhood. And it makes me quite sad to know that even in the state that I'm in now from the medications I'm on I'm nowhere near the condition I was in as a teenager since I'm still not near that dress size yet. But, at the same time, it gives me the confidence I need, knowing that I've lost this much weight once before and I can lose it once more. And seeing your journey and motivation to keep going really inspires me to keep moving forward too! You help me feel confident that I can do this. We both can. We're in this together. Many of us are. There are many people just like us and we're not alone and you help provide that feeling of connection for me. So thank you. ❤

Peter I love the updates. I’m 53, just had VSG surgery last week (7/30) Why? Because I have been a diabetic for 28 years and lost my entire family to complications of diabetes. The new thing is Type 3 diabetes that is linked to dementia and Alzheimer’s all due to our eating as a society. To get VSG, which I personally feel is extreme and I’ve tried everything even the Ozempic before it was a “thing” Before and after the surgery you are on a liquid diet. Some of my cohort did not make it to surgery day because they couldn’t complete the liquid diet phase. I’m a food addict… it is the hardest part of this surgery in fact, not painful if you ask me, you face a lot of demons. Now the reason for the liquids is to shrink your fatty liver for less risk of the surgeon removing 75/80% of your stomach. As an addict you learn a lot about yourself and the mental anguish you experience. The ISH is hard. My point in sharing… I would NEVER want ppl to get this surgery although it IS going to add years to my life, but it won’t if I am not serious. Pre-diabetes IS diabetes, it is a disease you do not want. I’m now on puréed food, then soft food, I will not be on solid foods until September. I can’t exercise or just walk not because they don’t allow… because of my diabetic ulcers and they completely heal. I do not wish this on anyone. Peter, my wish for you is to put the same work ethic you place in all your channels to research the best vegetarian lifestyle for you that is going to need to be structured for a food addict. I miss my family, it’s just me and my brother, I want us to travel and not spend our 70/80s in and out of doctor appointments. Your neighbors inspire me because they are active. I said it in another comment… watch Michele Wang’s video from today on her lifestyle change. It actually helped me because I will never say… I know everything because we don’t. It’s a mindset shift, it’s hitting your rock bottom, it’s putting yourself first. Your health is your wealth. Sorry so long.., ugh I talk too much! We love you Peter💙. I think I comment often about this…. I think you should stop the videos and research and come up with a plan along side your therapist, trainer, dietician, husbands, and trusted accountability partners.

Have you considered a Medical Ketogenic Diet? You can do it as a vegetarian & is great for weight loss and great for your brain. Just a thought… Love&Light from California 🤍🤍

It breaks my heart to hear how you didn't go to Christmas dinner with your mother! If you were so rigid, you would have not been tempted to eat a big meal. Why couldn't you go and order water and a salad or a side of vegetables so you could spend the time together. Peter, do your best. You need to come up with ways that work for you.
