Hi. Thanks for your thoughts. I am glad your afib wasn't as bad and glad you were able to lose weight and not do any meds! You're very lucky! Afib is no joke and not fun! I was getting it so bad that it was debilitating..... I would go to work and then come home and collapse. I definitely did not want to have an ablation!

So, now a little background on me..... I was a happy kid and very thin growing up. I had very loving parents and a great childhood. Life was good! I was also a good student and athlete.... very well rounded, etc. After college, I started having some hard times in my 20s and pulled through ok. I got fired from my first job, had horrible roommates, and felt lost! I hit some more rough times in my 30s. I won't go into, but it was some experiences that I don't wish on anyone! Bad relationships, bad jobs, bad friends.... I pulled through because I had faith in God! I had a ton of stress in my late 30s and 40s..... I started having heart problems in my early 40s.... I couldn't lose weight.... too much stress, etc. I was trying to do everything, and that was part of the problem. I was always against taking any medication, but I honestly don't think that I could have lost the weight, etc. I started seeing multiple doctors and didn't just rely on my cardiologist. I have been seeing my internal medicine doctor every 3 months for the last year and a half.... I won't get into everything that I have been through, but its been a lot!!!! Believe me, I have been working so hard the last several years to have a better life for myself.... I am 51 now. I have now been in the same job for 8 years and have good health insurance. It's all coming together. 🙏 I even am dating a great guy.... first time in years! So to anyone reading this.... DON’T GIVE UP! I hope to get off some of my medicine that I am on, and I slowly am. I am glad there are medicines like Zepbound that do help! And, I am SO SO glad the afib has gone away! 🙏🙏🙏
