What are some things you have stopped doing in recent years and why?

I've stopped coloring my hair, getting salon manicures, eating any pre-prepared foods, wearing high heels, purchasing products and/or food or storing them in plastic containers, caring what anyone else thinks, being open, accepting people at face value. Mostly all for my general health and happiness.

And you?

Eating sweet things and drinking alcohol.

I learned I had diabetes!

@JoyfulSilence Sorry to hear that, but healthy food and drink choices are the best! Good luck!

I am also on Ozempic, and am trying to lose weight by dieting.

My A1C is now in "prediabetic" territory.

@JoyfulSilence Good for you. I have seen previously undiagnosed diabetics with blood sugars that are completely through the roof! Take care, and keep putting in the work. You'll feel better!

@JoyfulSilence Ozempic works. Hope your insurance cooperates. Otherwise $1100 a month is rough.

My copay is only $25.
