No, the goal that I set with my Dr, this is the jumpstart I need to get back on track. Historically, My A1c is impacted by my weight and exercise levels. Hoping this can get me on track.

My Dr has had several patients on mounjaro and thought this was a really good option for me. 6 months at the latest is my goal, I go for a follow up after 3 months.

this is only day 3 for me, have to say that I feel like I did during my honeymoon phase, I am not even thinking about food.

Good morning from somewhere in the Adirondack mountains!

I'm just over an hour from my first stop and can't keep my eyes open. Phew. Stopping at a local gas station to reset. I've made it about 1,000 miles since 11am yesterday, so not bad. Hot dogs are on my lunch menu.

QOTD - go to the library and read all the books on edible plants, growing things...and maybe hunting. I don't know enough to be self-sufficient.

Menu today is protein grab bag, at least one Michigan from two different places, probably less the bun.

Have a wonderful Monday!

Thank you. I absolutely pull over once the tired happens. Falling asleep while driving is a terrifying prospect.
