I’m currently a lump of chocolate and cheese, but once the new year hits, I’m determined to make 2026 the year I finally get back to a healthy weight (I’ve lost about 20 pounds, with about 80-100 to go). I’m pretty good about exercising regularly, but, as they say, abs are made in the kitchen. Those who have successfully lost weight, is there anything you particularly recommend for maintaining a calorie deficit to lose the weight, and then avoiding gaining it back later on?
In the past, I have found crippling levels of poverty to be quite helpful.
I’ve got a mysterious health problem that’s causing near constant nausea and have lost over 50lbs this year without even trying.
What kind of test have you got done? Does medicine to stop the nausea help?
I’ve had bloodwork, stool samples, xray, CT, and upper/lower scope. I’ve got a hernia, and some intestinal ulcers, but insurance won’t approve the meds, so I’m still looking for a diagnosis they like.
It’s also likely to have an element of autonomic dysfunction too, since they’ve found bone spurs in my neck that are pushing on my spinal cord, but there’s not much I can do about that. It’s possible that overusing painkillers for my neck is whats causing the ulcers.
I hope every employee of your insurance company involved with this decision gets obliterated by karma. Fucking assholes
