It’s been a long time. I weighed as much as 205 a while back. While in Oaxaca, I had a pretty severe respiratory illness that eliminated my appetite and energy level – I lost at least 5 pounds, maybe 10. In any case, I was as low as 188 recently.
Now, though, I’m back up to 194. At a recent doctor visit, my cholesterol was elevated (LDL 149, HDL 59, total 228), fasting glucose 105, and BMI was 27.1 (overweight but not obese, and enough to qualify for a GLP-1 agonist). So I’m in!
At Costco, it would have cost $1331.29, but my doctor’s office notified me of “Lilly Direct” and apparently I can get it for $349/mo for the lower dose, and $499 for the higher ones.
Today, I have eaten six slices of bacon so far, and coffee.
Later in the day, Whole Foods hot line, and for dinner, chicken and salad. Lots of aerobic exercise today.
