I am obese 306lb and stay in bed all the time. I eat a LOT including junk food. My parents tell me I will die in my sleep from a heart attack because of my bad health. I am afraid of having a stroke/heart attack and dying. My Dr begged me to exercise but I can’t.

I have high cholesterol, high blood pressure, high triglycerides and prediabetic A1C.
I thought you had said you were down to 285 or something like that. Did you go up recently?>

Yes, I was 285lb before I took my last forum break 1-2 months ago.

I’m overweight myself and dont exercise. Eating healthy is hard. Food is like a drug to me.

Food and vaping nicotine are my only pleasures in life since sz. I can’t quit or reduce them.

You’re still young. I personally wouldnt worry about a heart attack or stroke just yet. If you’re still obese in your 40’s, then id be worried. @Aziz

I dont know if you were joking that you can get up if you are going to erotic massage or to smoke weed. Start walking to erotic massage everyday!

I was on Abilify back then, idk if I can do that now but I am not going back to my bad old addictions. Honestly I prefer dying than going back to that life.

Eat salads. Raw vegetables. Cut Carbs and Sugar.
Eat 8 times a day small portions. It will help shrink your stomach size maybe.
Give it a shot.
It freakin sucks.

I did that last year for a month then gave up, its too hard for me 
Sorry for suggesting that then. I was kinda joking around a bit. What can I tell you other than try new meds or go back on abilify until you get back in shape. Either way youre going to have to take a risk to save your life.

Its fine, I wish exercising and working was as motivating for me as my past bad addictions. I think you were right last time in saying that these addictions motivate me more since they release more and faster dopamine and are much easier.

I just can’t be normal like before sz. Now all choices are bad and lead to my early death.

I always went out to buy weed when I was becoming psychotic I think it was the dopamine driving me.

im 340 lbs. feel like i have to choose between fat and crazy on meds. and now ive given up on trying other meds because everytime i go back on olanzapine i gain more weight that before. when i was first on olanzapine i went up to 240, but was upset with my weight gain. i should have just stayed on it because it stabilized

I do regular blood tests to check cholesterol, triglycerides, etc I also check my blood pressure at home. Maybe you can do these if you don’t already. I have been taking blood pressure and anticholesterol meds since my 20s.
