This is exactly right. BethLabQueen articulated what I have been trying to explain to my doctor for months. The Theme park season aspect is the most important factor.
Reading this thread on Theme park season hits close to home. Night shift nurse — I started at 283 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.
9 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 58 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.
If you are on the fence about Theme park season — take the leap. It was the best health decision I have ever made. ❤️
