Thanks all for all the good thoughts and input....

Ya, they say the sleep study is around $2,000, and the going rate for CPAP machine is around $1,000.

I don't know if it will help, but I used to suffer from chronic headaches.
I found out they got worse when I would lie down.
The closer I got to horizontal, the worse it got.
Then I would have to sit in a chair upright and gut it out until the pain finally went away.
Over time, I took to sleeping in a recliner.
I have been doing so for years now, and it really helps with my headaches.
I don't know if it will help for your issues, but it might be worth giving it a try.
Who knows?
Best of luck to you!

Not to bombard you with advice, but the sleep apnea, weight, depression, and diabetes all cluster together and reinforce each other. Chipping away at one will likely help you with the others. It sounds to me like getting back to the gym is a great goal for you, and fixing the sleep apnea should really help you do that.

I'm taking back any help extended. I know this person has many many problems and will not be able to change for the better for a long time and with significant struggle. But I can't in good conscience continue to offer help to someone who a few hours later is back to spewing hateful ugliness.
Earlier in this thread faqs admitted:

And then later he posts in this thread in Terrestrial:

There was no need to mention the "mostly African-American congregation".
Everything with liberals is colored through race, instead of just people with needs.
There had already been a positive discussion of the program started by an African American friend of mine. (In fact, the thread's OP, I Have A Question, had already changed the thread's title upon my request, deleting a probably offensive use of the term "segregation." Yay, IHAQ! )
But then faqs comes along, and posts right under my last comment.
Had faqs read my comment? Did he think about the entire thread before he posted? No he used it as yet another excuse to, in his own words, "zone out" and repost the kind of unthinking ugly garbage that he always does. He clearly knows nothing about the topic but doesn't let that stop him.
I don't need to be concerned about helping someone whose mission is to spread filth and ignorance.
good luck.

I've been using one for a couple of years to stop my snoring. I ended up with a ResMed S9 -- it works great and is so quiet my wife doesn't hear it. I saw one on Craigslist not too long ago (barely used, with humidifier) for $350.
I just checked our local craigslist, there are tons of them on there!

Geez, Blixa, I dunno. The kind of changes he wants to make are positive things. Any help I can give costs me only a couple of minutes and a few keystrokes. If something I can say might be of help to a fellow human who I think is clearly suffering, why not say it.
Real change is hard, and I've never met anyone who vowed to turn over a new leaf and instantly became a new person. It takes a phenomenal amount of effort to change. I hope he is able to make the lifestyle changes that will put him in better health.

To the topic:
...?
My
immigration thread begins with 71 dead immigrants in one car. Including babies.
In that case, the suspected were Bulgar, Romanian and Afghan (with H. papers). And a Hungarian keeper. With Slovakian number plate, to make the case more simple.
Next time, there will be
ALL Hungarians suspected. As we are the passage of Europe, today.
Or we are the last palladium?

Yes, we are.
„Magyarországon meg kell előzni, vagy meg kell akadályozni a népvándorló hordák agresszióját. Akkor is, ha mi adunk először tűzparancsot a határaink megvédésére. Az idő közeleg.”
The google translate is - khm; near proper.
"Hungary should be prevented or necessary to prevent the hordes of people migrating aggression. Even if we give the order to fire the first time to defend our borders. The time is coming. "
The order for fire...
The time is coming...Viktor Orban (our prime minister, in case You don't know where Europe is) has a normal brain...
