My gym sent me flowers.
My coworkers are bringing me sooooo many home cooked meals.
I appreciate my community so much. 🥰

I am so tired.

I picked up knitting again a couple wks ago but sadly this was me yesterday. It will be a long process. 😅

My PCP's nurse called to check on me today & I happened to check the notes after the call. 🤣

Look, I told the truth. I am actually alive now. Depleted of iron & rbcs. So exhausted & completely useless, but alive.

I lived.

There she is! Looks like I MAY have found my maintenance calories.

I've been super hungry lately & the reeses cups are working, friends.

I love the Lose It app.

I hit my 2nd goal weight.

I'm done.

I've lost ~140 lbs since May 2024 when I first set my intention.

Strength training + macro & calorie tracking.

Thank the lord for dieticians. Turns out for years, I ate too much of some things & way too little protein & fiber.

My tattoo sleeve is complete with all my filler added. 🥰 The only pic I have so far is of this cute little cloud. Most of the filler are stars & little fun fruit.

I'll take a photo of my entire sleeve once everything is healed.

My arm is so colorful & I love it.

I did it!
From Obese Class 3 to "Healthy" BMI in ~13 months.

- deep caloric deficit under medical supervision including Registered Dietician.
- mindful & intentional eating.
- weighing & tracking everything I could.
- protein
- fiber
- no off-limit foods. Still eating my fav foods in moderation.

Going down, down.
126 lbs down.
8 lbs to "healthy" BMI.
Started at "Obese class 3" last year.

(BMI isn't the best measure of health, but I needed a goalpost.)

Not feeling great?
May I suggest: hair dye?

I've never been this blue before.

And I keep forgetting to bring towels with me to the fucking bathroom because I have to shower in the one I never shower in.

This is the SECOND time. The first one was a shark towel.

This is an automatic water faucet in my room. It just started spraying water randomly. No one is around. Help, is there a ghost washing it's hands?

Yep!

Hi.
I hit my 1st goal weight since starting my intentional weight loss journey a year ago.

I haven't ever felt stronger & more alive in all of my adulthood.

Change of plans

Probably getting a sunburn. But what else should I be doing when grandma wants to take baby in the morning & I'm already 1 coffee deep?

Psst...
Go to Martinique in the off-season.

We've had beaches completely to ourselves. 🥰

This is my first vacation in FOUR years due to the pandemic. I'm absolutely living it up in off-season here in Martinique.

Getting here was an absolute nightmare that ended with me in tears nearly constantly & all 3 of us were completely saturated with pee after our nearly 24 hrs of travel.
