Wonderful! 5 pounds is no small feat. t’s amazing how even modest weight loss can reduce joint strain. Some research suggests GLP-1s like Zepbound reduces inflammation, especially in conditions like rheumatoid arthritis. But you still may need a more targeted approach. Your progress is inspiring! 💪

Thanks! I was caught off guard by that one. I know everyone's frustrated with the chaos and division in the world. Me too! It's easy to cast blame when you're frustrated and feel helpless. I'll probably give Blue Sky another chance going forward. Guess I just needed a break. How have you been doing?

“I understand the anger, but blaming individual doctors overlooks reality. We didn’t design this system. I was so disillusioned by the constraints and the harm they caused that I left traditional practice and shifted to lifestyle medicine and health writing. So you’re preaching to the choir.

I get why you’re upset—it feels invasive. But this isn’t something I control. The rules come from regulations I played no role in, not from me. There are many things not to like about the current healthcare system. My goal is to help people stay healthy so they don’t need meds.

Oh, gosh, I’m sorry you were offended. I know there’s a lot of hate and unhappiness on this platform. That’s why I don’t post here anymore. But if you found this offensive. I’m truly sorry. 🙏😿

Excellent, Scott! That standing job gifted you resilience, and now you're gifting yourself the movement medicine that keeps muscles, bones, and brains thriving. Glad you’re back in motion! :-)

That’s a poetic mic drop, Scott. "Life neglect” as a root cause hits harder than most diagnoses. Good one!

I'm glad they ruled out cardiovascular disease! Glad the breathing helped. 🫁
July 15, 2025 at 3:59 PM
Oh, that's kind, Scott! I appreciate it. You're cool too. And yes, sitting is the new smoking. :-)

I didn't have a terrible childhood at all, but I think I do carry some trauma I can't identify. How do you recover from your own trauma?

I love this simple approach, George! It's ingenuous in its simplicity. I think I'll give it a try myself. It might be easier than opening up Obsidian. Thanks for sharing this. :-)

Beautiful, George! Rumi reminds us that gentleness is revolutionary, and every strange detour is part of the dance. 🌿
July 15, 2025 at 3:54 PM
Wow! Over a thousand pages is impressive, George! I like your idea too. If you use a free app like Obsidian, you can even interlink your thoughts and search by tags or keywords. It’s like a personal thought atlas—built one entry at a time. Love your idea. :-)

You’re definitely not alone in feeling that way, Scott, That phone might be a lifeline in case of a fall, but it’s also a little window to the outside world when everything else feels quiet. :-)
July 13, 2025 at 4:40 PM
I know what you mean, Scott! Too much time spent online leads to burnout. I'm thinking about taking a break myself. Hope you have a wonderful day!
July 11, 2025 at 3:44 PM
Yes, it's almost magical, isn't it? Nothing lifts my mood more than being out in nature. Hope you're doing well, George. :-)

Good for you! That's amazing that the squirrel came up to you. 🌰🐿️

Yes, we definitely need more kindness. Now more than ever. The world seems WAY too divided.
July 8, 2025 at 5:20 PM
We are! We hiked this morning before the heat became oppressive. Hope you have an amazing day. :-)

Thank you for feeding the animals! I’m sure they appreciate to too. :-)
