Health stuff, past hard part, onto slow progression
So, last year, I was hospitalized. I had the over-weight trifecta: Blood Pressure, Type 2 'Beetus, and Sleep Apnea. And at the start, I was fine with medicating.
Riiiiiiiight up until I found out I happened into the side-effect group of continuous diarrhea for the beetus meds. I kept up with it for three weeks, then said fuck it. Nope.
At that point, I dropped most carbs from my diet, and by Feb, I had dropped my A1C to pre-beetus levels.

Thankfully those appear to have also been resolved by the CPAP machine. But I'm not a fan of my heart stopping since I don't have a back-up.
NOTE: Have back-up heart installed.
So, it's daily walks, and heart pills. And I gotta keep on that shit until I can go without. Presumably, the number I need to drop is my blood pressure so that I'm into 120/80 without medicine. After that, I suppose we can do another apnea test.

Still, the second I can upload my brain to a robot, I will be first in line for that shit.

Since that point, I've fluctuated up and down. Progress has been harder since I don't have a thing to track to reduce my apnea besides my weight and since weight is so in flux, it drives me nuts if I track it directly.
The main reason I'm working on the apnea is that when I did the test, I'd stop breathing about every minute, which sucks. But half of those incidents were caused by heart stoppages. So. Uh. Shit.
