A Lilly Journey

 I've decided to take action against the extra weight that has been weighing me down (ha! ha!) for quite some time now.  I tried to get my insurance to approve Zepbound, but they denied coverage because I was one tenth of a point too low on my BMI.  So I decided to do self-pay from Lilly Direct.  The starter dose is $299.  I am hoping to start it today.  Fingers crossed!

A New Year

 Here it is, the opportunity for a fresh start. Or should I say restart?  At this point, I have had MANY fresh starts. The only problem is that we often carry our same emotional baggage over the restart line.

I want to return to social activities. I've sort of ignored them the last 7 months. I want to be more physically active.  I was a runner for decades, and now it's all I can do to get myself to go for walks.  And of course, my weight is up, and that issue really needs addressed.

Most of all, I hope this year doesn't throw all the things at me that 2025 did.  I just want to be happy, in peace, and about 20 pounds lighter.  Is that asking too much?
