So I want to keep track of what I'm going to be going through in the next few months. I'm calling this update #0 because it hasn't really begun, but the wheels have been set into motion.

I'd say today was a very good day for me. Trying to find a therapist had not been easy, because American health care is a hellscape designed to make you not want to use it. But after meeting with my physician today, I asked if she had a recommendation if there was someone I could talk to, and I was given a name, and an appointment in two weeks. I've looked into the person I'll be seeing, and she seems like someone who might actually listen to me. First update on that will be in two weeks I suppose.

In other news, without even trying, I have lost 11 pounds in 2 months, without even trying. The only lifestyle change is that I've switched to working nights, and now I'm eating fewer, smaller meals, and snacking less, and sleeping more. With this progress, my doctor says I might actually be able to go on Ozempic (or something similar). But right now, I'm just happy I no longer qualify for free meals at the Heart Attack Grill! *fistbump*

Last bit of good news today, something I haven't really talked publicly about is I have been making a second attempt at that bachelor's degree I blew my chance at almost 20 years ago. This was slowed down massively from my job loss earlier this year, but I've gotten back to it. Though I've been dealing with C Programming, which has been the biggest worry of this whole endeavor, which I am now taking the second class I'm required to pass. Well, today was my midterm, and... I absolutely crushed it! I am still in disbelief of how well I did! I have been struggling this whole class, and I got 94 out of 96 possible points (shakes fist at those last two points). It made me feel like I might actually be able to pull this off!

Anyways, that was my day. It was pretty good. I hope you all had a good day to.
