Hi Greta, Thanks for the advice. We are moving to a new apartment where I will have a saltwater pool to swim in every day. Before COVID, swimming was one of the ways I kept the weight off. It will be good to get pack into a daily routine. The apartment also has a terrific gym that is well-equipped for me to do workouts. And the area where we are moving is very walkable. I am very cognizant of calories in, and calories expended as the best way to reduce my body mass. For now, the quick fix of Ozempic and other weight-loss drugs with all of their potential side effects has me steering clear.]]> In reply to Greta Rosen.

It’s not perfect, it’s not easy, but this new drug seems just another quick fix. If you want your A1C to come down you must be consistent, make the changes, and ( oh yeah ) hit the gym. And consult a bonafide dietician, not a fitness ‘expert’ who took ‘ a course in nutrition ‘.
