Well I have metabolic syndrome thanks to numerous psych meds over the years.

It makes it much much harder to lose weight for sure ., my doctor said if he wanted to lose 5 lbs it’s like it would take me likely 3 times longer. Yeah big bummer thought

I’ve got some physical crap going on with my breathing so doing any kind of exercise is out, I barely got around my grocery store earlier. It’s expected to clear up but we just aren’t sure.

Once I can get back on a biologic medication for my PsA and can truly even get out for brisk walks if I am determined to stay on track food wise across the board , I know I will be able to lose weight, albeit slower than slow.

I tried Metforum for possible weight loss but it just gave me diarrhea.

Because I have Bipolar no Doctor is going to give me any medications to “ speed “ me up.

Nothing is impossible but sometimes it just takes a lot longer than we wish it would.
