Struggling to Get Started

Hey folks. Starting out today on another round of trying to get healthier. 31 F (transitioning to male), 5’4” and about 450 lbs, which puts me in the 70s for BMI. Autistic and ADHD since those are factors.

I’ve been trying to lose the weight since I was 12. I have tried weight watchers, Food Lovers Fat Loss, and I’ve previously been on Saxenda (a GLP-1 that really wrecked me with constant vomiting and diarrhea even when I was only eating half an apple and a glass of water a day).

My biggest issues right now are struggling with my mobility, and feeling any motivation because I’ve tried before and failed probably a dozen times at this point. But I’ve hit my wall of continuing on the path that I am now. If I stay like this, I’m going to lose my partner, our hopes for our future, and probably my life.

Can anyone please give me any advice or tips or help to get started again? I can’t live like this anymore and I don’t know what to do. Thanks in advance.

Dress Shirt Advice

Hey all! Transmasc big dude here, size 4XL in most things. I’m 5’3”, 450-ish lbs. I am still figuring out how to do my measurements a little more effectively. Some guide posts- I’m a 4XL at Old Navy and a 4XL in the Walmart “George” brand, and my current dress shirts that fit well are 22” neck, 35-36 and 38-39. I’m more pear-shaped and have a belly, especially when I bind.

I am dressed for going out (gotta love binding).
I’m trying to find a nice, slightly whimsical dress shirt for my best friend’s wedding at the end of September. They’re getting married at a lavender farm, and their style and ceremony is very witchy/whimsical (as is my own). Do any of you know some brands or places I can look for a shirt that will look nice for an outdoor, evening wedding? Thanks all!

Do throwable items in BG3 take advantage of throwing weapons builds?

Currently asking for my fiancé- he’s playing honor mode and trying to optimize. He currently has Karlach beefed up with a throwing weapons build, and is building her out to focus specifically on throwing.
He’s in Act 1, with the returning pike, and is using the ring of fling, the gloves of uninhibited Kushigo, and the tavern brawler feat. He wants to know if throwable items, like acid vials or alchemist’s fire, have any damage bonuses. Any help is appreciated, and I apologize if this question already has been asked, I didn’t see it as I was trying to get a non-AI answer.
