absolutely correct, I suspect modern processed food stuff is a culprit in a lot of sub acute chronic conditions, Eliminating about 50 percent of my carb intake has resulted in me not needing stool softeners, anymore.
I should have been diabetic 16 years ago, (I suspect drinking 6 to 8 cups, per day, of black coffee has something to do wit…

I should have been diabetic 16 years ago, (I suspect drinking 6 to 8 cups, per day, of black coffee has something to do with that, I saw an old study from 20 years ago, and switching to black coffee was something I could do)
My plan, I started Oz q week, at the starter dose. I never increased to maintenance dose. It really helped with lowering my food portions, frequency, and even my drinking. After about 6 month, I started taking it every ten days. About 11 months after I started, I now take it q 2 weeks, next month I bump up to q 3 weeks.
I will do that probably all summer, then switch to q month, till I get to one syringe (I was able to accumulate due to smaller dosing)
End game, when I get to one syringe, that I will use prn, probably last a year.
And Ozempic is the crutch I found most useful to get me back on my "feet"
At this point, I think I have a new breakfast habit, pretty close to a new lunch habit, and supper getting better (IE less) .
My plan, learn new habits of eating, and activity, with less alcohol consumption, after two years of "training".
It takes me about two years to really change a habit. Stopping smoking was easy, I just never picked them up again. I HAVE to pick up food.
After 2 years, I stopped even thinking about cigarettes. I suspect every has a different time table for change.
I did add zinc, which seems to ward off leftist germs ;-}
I am also working on "ritual".
Humans have been doing rituals for hundreds of thousands of years, and I suspect its because they worked, often enough. My walking, and prepping smaller meals, has turned into a ritual. More on that if some cool supernatural shit happens, like finding that lost thing. "if" I go thru the "ritual", ending with getting my keys to go buy the missing thing, and then viola, finding the thing before I leave.
If I don't do the ritual, and just go out and buy it, I wont find the lost tool till I get back home. absolutely amazing how often that happens.
Rituals. Time honored human activity. And easier to do that just common sense.
