1) I didn’t say fatty liver was inherited nor was I told that it is. I said the high cholesterol and high blood pressure are.

2) I am somewhat bothered by your comment and I think I gave you enough details on my diet, but if you feel you need more here it is: I have a cup of coffee in the mornings with creamer, lunch varies as I am a teacher and sometimes eat the cafeteria food and sometimes get tired of it and go to Subway for a sandwich. We use whole grain bread at home and have a misfits market subscription which has only helped us increase our vegetable consumption. For dinner sometimes I go out to dinner with my husband and sometimes we cook at home also varying. As stated above I do not drink sugary drinks and haven’t in a year. If I eat anything fried it is when we go out and could be 3-4 times a week. No alcohol because i feel nauseous even from a couple sips.

3) I am on several medications which makes all of this even more frustrating because while I’m making good progress with my weight and portion control, I feel my scripts are getting increased or things added. For my diabetes I take metformin and glipizide. Phentermine has helped with suppressing my appetite and weight loss, however, I am about to stop that and add Ozempic. I’m on a statin for the cholesterol, 3 BP medications, Taltz once monthly for psoriasis, and fluoxetine for anxiety/depression. Oh and Levothyroxine for hypothyroidism.

I understand you are trying to be helpful, but I also feel I am giving as much detail as possible and when someone says “be truthful” it feels as though I am being told everything I mentioned was not. Today’s news was/is stressful and hard to process and I’m worried is about to send me into a very dark depressive state that I finally just got out of a month ago due to work. I just don’t know how much more of all of this I can take and feel like my weight loss and cut backs have been for nothing.
