About Me: Hello everyone I'm J, and this is my first ever log! I've been training naturally on and off my entire life, and finally decided that for the new years I'm going to make a change in my lifestyle and overall well being! I'm writing this log to keep me on track, and have a journal of my journey. About a year ago my average weight was always around 210lbs until I was first prescribed some medications for my mental health and stopped working out and rapidly gained 60lbs. I'm giving myself a little time to get everything to start 1/1/24 the New Year so I can begin my new lifestyle!

Thinking About:
Starting N2Generate to help with my low T? Thoughts? Alternatives?
Eventually starting MK-677 to help with sleep and build muscle? Thoughts? Alternatives?
Suggestions? Please I'm more than happy to take any advice, guidance or suggestions anyone has for me, thanks!
ONE YEAR UPDATE: Its been a year, and I'm back.. I originally wrote this log to hold myself accountable, but the only thing I accomplished was a lack of action, and dedication! But here i am again, I'm finally in the perfect headspace, and life situation to start taking my health seriously. Ive made all the necessary investments [gym membership, supplements, food, macro tracker] and feeling pretty motivated! As far as stats go, they are basically the same, I did blood work recently with nothing out of the norm, as far as T goes I haven't tested since last year, but fully aware it'll re-stabilize as i shed the extra weight. I managed to receive a couple Ozmepic pens in the time I was gone, and they worked like magic, with no side effects! Unfortunately I'm now aware I need to make a lifestyle change to keep the weight off after Semaglutide which is in the works! With that being said it was a constant battle with my insurance to get it covered, so i decided to make my first Naps order, and order it there instead! I made my order last Wednesday so I'm still waiting, but very excited!
