I’m lowkey terrified it’s just poor blood flow to the brain, layman's terms or whatever. When the dizziness and vomiting hit... I start spiraling about having a stroke.
Honestly, wouldn't surprise me one bit.😢But yeah, haven't actually done anything about it yet.

coffee, damn...

Everyone in Cleveland pays up regardless of their health insurance status.
Better go ask them yourself...

Honestly, I think I’m just terrified and that's why I need sugar.
It's like... I get cold and anxious and everything just feels heavy, unfortunately.
You have to find some way to fill the void with something else, but food is just right there, handheld, and it works instantly.🙄

Timothy Reed8 said:Look, my head is all over the place when I'm crashing from too much sugar or whatever, but things feel totally different when I actually eat right... obviously I'm more level-headed then... but man, I can never stay on track for long. I'm counting on the balloon to help me learn how to stick to it and make it a permanent habit.

I feel that too. Once I hit the sweets, I just spiral—my brain gets all fuzzy like I’ve had a few drinks. When I'm eating right, I'm way sharper and actually get stuff done.🙂
Guess I need a better way to ride those highs...😂

If that balloon is actually playing some part in this whole brainwashing thing, then welcome aboard!

I mean, why not? But the whole point is you have to overhaul how you eat for good. Tons of veggies, fruit, some meat (fish is best), maybe some dairy, and that’s basically it. Staying active means actually changing your lifestyle habits.
Forget soda—just drink water.
Say goodbye to bread, pastries, pizza, chocolate, fried stuff, or deli meats.
MOSTLY, WE SHOULD ALL JUST EAT LIKE DIABETICS—THAT'S THE VIBE.
Every single day I just ask myself... can I actually pull this off?
Because if this extra weight lands me a diagnosis, then I won't have a choice. I'll HAVE to.

Might scrape some cash together by late summer, but man, who can deal with this until then... hoping I can just power through on my own at least until mid-September🙄

So, I called today and they said everyone’s paying.
Not sure if there are some super vulnerable groups getting free installs or rebates, though... who knows.

I honestly have no clue how they even pick people, it’s not like a surgery or anything... I feel like they mostly just grab folks who aren't even that heavy and don't really have major health issues.

So I called the Rio Grande this morning... they’re charging 9800 flat for everything regardless of your index😢 pretty steep if you ask me...
