Beginning Weight Loss?

Hello! I've been struggling with weight my whole life and would love to improve my overall health.

I'm 6ft and over 400lb, so typical workout routines are either too hard or not feasible.

Any suggestions on where to start would be helpful, for some background here are the things I'm currently doing to support a healthier life:

1. Stopped soda in 2024 January (going strong!)
2. Increased fruits/veggies intake
3. Reduced intake of candy / sweets (this is HARD)
4. Increased water intake (about 120 oz a day usually)
5. Spoke with my doctor about bariatrics and wegovy - my previous insurance didn't cover either! (not sure about new insurance!?)
6. Reduced alcohol consumption - used to be 3-4 beers a night (around 2017-2020) now I only drink if we're out to eat or for special occasions.

One of the things I know I need to improve is my sleep, but I'm so BUSY! We have 6 kids in my house, I'm working full time, and working on a bachelors degree.

Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Thanks!
~Blake
