Loc: i fell off the rails
I'm still alive and living in SC where I moved full time in 2016, while still working for the RR in the NE. I fell apart in Feb of 2019 the day after my 60th birthday and have been disabled and here full time since June of 2019.
I have had more surgeries and infections than I can count since that fateful day in February. I am on the mend but will never be the same.
My wife passed very unexpectedly in November of 22 and in mid February of this year I was broadsided by someone making a not too smart left turn, no injuries but the severe arthritis that has crippled me hurts worse than ever. They were good enough to total my truck.
I finally got my sugar under control from not working crazy hours anymore and then proceeded to lose 50 pounds, 40 of which I put on since 2019 when I fell apart.
Fishing here sucks and I am sad to say that the last time I caught a fish was my Piketoberfest win, oh so long ago.
May not be easy at first, but changing up your diet and adding in some exercise (as best you can; even just walking) can really boost your mood. One day at a time.
Sounds like you already know how to take off weight; trick is to keep it off, as you also know.
Take it all one day at a time. Hope 2023 is a good year for you. Check in here more often!
I'm not dead yet - will post something in the boating section
I don't fish nearly as much as I used to
