My weight gain arrived during the pandemic. I became lifestyles of the lazy before discovering I couldn't zip my jeans.
I'm exercising 3-5 times a week, eating salads, drinking protein shake as substitute for meal.

Daliresp is and anti-inflammatory that reduces inflammation in the lungs, and therefore often reduces the number of exacerbations you might have. People who have multiple hospitalizations in a year are good candidates for Daliresp.

Hi ladies! What does Daliresp treat/do? I hope everyone had a good breathing day! Katz, Jean had good suggestion....graze all day! I do that sometimes. Handful of raw almonds, celery.....but then cheesecake or pistachios call my name! But I do much better when I keep even a little bit of food in my stomach.
