been walking more, trying to get at least one mile a day. Some days my knees won't hear of it, but most days I can manage it. I do some leg extensions in the gym before I get started and once the knees are warmed up it seems to help a lot. next update will be when I hit the 2 mile mark per day... :smokin:

Updates?
old thread I know.
but this topic is current with me.
I quit tobacco 6 months ago and switched to just a nicotine delivery system called zyn.
much better.
weight loss and A1C control is much better using mounjaro vs trulicity.
MJ comes with an extremely decreased appetite and a little nausea vs the bad sickness that TLC caused.

Wow, forgot about this. Need to work on updating more often.

I've not smoked since July 2017. I had used chantix off and on but had let it lapse. Ran out of smokes one evening and never bought anymore.

Weight loss and mobility has become more of a struggle. Doc told me I was diabetic and changed my meds ( was taking metformin) the new script made a difference in weight loss. I'm down 10 - 15 lbs since starting the new drugs. Weight flucuates still. I think most of the loss was water weight.

I have a nice home gym, havent been using it as much as I used to. I'm slowly getting back into it but its a constant battle with myself. Thankfully Juana is working out with me quite a bit.

James, I've never heard of Mounjaro before. Sounds like its working for you. 👍

I used to try different diets, keto, etc. Nowadays Im doing my best to eat smart and better. Still aint had any kale yet..🤮
I have big expectations for myself this year. We will see how those turn out come December.

So I can't remember the date when I weighed myself (was within the last 3 months) and was the heaviest I've ever been. but I'm down 23lbs from then.. :smokin:
