The second half of 2023 was one of my most positive in years from a weight loss point of view. From the time I started on Ozempic in June to Now I have lost a total of 58 pounds. My next goal of 100 pounds is now within sight. At least with binoculars. I do have a specific plan for the year 2024, I won't call them resolutions because those never make it past a week. This is a long term goal and a life changing one. I will try to include more exercise in my daily plan. As I may have told you all, I do have severe and inoperable osteoarthritis in my hips and legs. Most of my exercise has been upper body, using an arm bike. Unfortunately I have not been as attentive to the bike as I should be. My goal is to at very least, walk around the building using a walker for balance on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. With the arm bike being used on non walking days. This will hopefully aid in my weight loss, as my weight loss does plateau from time to time and of course the water retention from the CHF can also increase weight temporarily. As always I am very optimistic and look forward to continued improvement of my health in 2024. 2023 has resulted in much less arthritis pain. Hopefully, with further weight loss the pain will diminish even more. I would really like to be able to get around using only a cane for support. A year ago that would have been nothing more than an unreachable dream. Now, it is a great possibility and I'm willing to work for it. Wishing everyone in my groups and on the Web Site a Happy and Healthy 2024. 🥳🥳🥳 NO SLIPPING BACK!!!
