Staying Positive
Yesterday, I went to see my doctor for my monthly checkin for the weightloss program I am doing. I was dreading it because I’ve had a few rough weeks. I had some kind of bug one week that kept me in bed for a few days. Then my lower back was bothering me. During this time, I was under a lot of stress. (Hint— I am and always have been a stress eater). Because of all of these reasons, I thought I…

What would be your last meal?
Have you ever thought about what you would choose as your last meal? Mike and I have started watching The Mythical Kitchen on YouTube. One of their things is inviting celebrities to eat their last meal. We recently watched the episode with Chef Jose Andres. I have been a big fan of this chef ever since he and his World Central Kitchen came to Charlotte County and fed those of us dealing with…

Random thoughts...
I couldn’t decide what I wanted to write about today so I decided to share some random thoughts. Happy Father’s Day – I don’t know how to celebrate this year. Last year was the first Father’s Day after my dad passed. There was a lot more sadness last year. This year I am a bit more introspective. I have been thinking more about the good times we had with my dad. Tiny ducks – The Jeep duck craze…
Podcast Episode: I don't care
Pip: Welcome to This Blank Life — the show where the blank turns out to be complicated, personal, and occasionally requires a prescription.Mara: Kathy Harriott has one post for us today, and it goes straight at a question that sits at the intersection of medicine, judgment, and what we actually mean when we call something cheating.Pip: Let's start with that.Using the Tools Modern Medicine…
I don't care
I don’t care what other people think. Really, I don’t. I’ve been quite honest about using a GLP-1 to lower my A1C, lose weight, and improve my overall health. What I do care about is the misconception that taking a GLP-1 is somehow “cheating.” Photo by Julia Larson on Pexels.com Putting in the work. Cheating implies that there was an easy way out, that the results came without effort,…

That darn algorithm! NOT!
Most of the time, I despise how social media uses its algorithms to send targeted posts and ads to your feed. However, over the past two weeks, the algorithm has been sending me info that is not only relevant but also inspiring. CRAFTING GET-TOGETHERS!! I have received ads for funny flower pot painting, paper crafting, painting, crochet-alongs, and more. For the first time in a while my…

What a difference 2 years and 8.5 months makes.
The first picture is from 39.5 pounds ago. This is the best older photo that I have, showing the difference. I’m pretty damn proud of myself.

My 5-Month GLP-1 Update: 25.6 Pounds Down and 20.4 Inches Lost
Five months ago, I started my GLP-1 journey hoping to improve my health and finally find something that would help me build sustainable habits. Today, I’m celebrating a milestone that feels about so much more than weight loss: I’m down 25.6 pounds and have lost a total of 20.4 inches from my body. While I’m proud of those numbers, some of my biggest victories can’t be measured on a scale. The…
I Thought the House Sale Would Set Me Free***
I am tired in a way that sleep cannot fix. For a year now, I have carried the weight of my father’s estate on my shoulders. Not just the paperwork, not just the legal responsibilities, but the emotional burden of being the one who had to step in and handle everything. When Dad died, I said yes to being Executor because I loved him. I wanted to do the right thing. I wanted to make sure his…

More Than a Number: My Weight Loss and Wellness Update.
My wellness journey is a multi-faceted adventure. I have some great updates today – from food tasting notes to some non-scale victories that have shocked me. First, for my tasting notes: I tried this yogurt. It was very creamy. It had a delicious blueberry flavor. Macros: 170 calories, 3.5 g fat, 9 g carbs, and 25 g of protein. I added some extra blueberries. I went to the gym today. I did…

Progress
The excitement of hitting my recent weight loss goal has me extra inspired. Here are the ways I am supporting and celebrating my goals: I joined Planet Fitness and will have my first session with a trainer on Tuesday. I am hoping to get a good plan in place to do strength training to support my GLP-1 journey. Went to the pool today and thoroughly enjoyed some gentle therapeutic movement. I…

Celebrating ME!
This morning I weighed myself and I have hit a number that I haven’t seen in YEARS!!! I celebrated this evening by joining Planet Fitness and scheduling a training session for next Tuesday after work. I’m really excited. Here’s to NOT looking like this at the gym —-
So close...
I haven’t done an update in a while, so I figure today is as good a day as any. I am at my lowest weight in many years. This morning my home scale said 300.9 lbs. I’m so close to getting out of the threes and into the twos that I can taste it. It tastes like low carb and strength training. LOL What am I going to do when I get under 300 lbs? I don’t know yet. I need to celebrate but I don’t want…
Who knew?
Who knew that the simple act of putting on sock would make me so happy? Last year at this time, I was struggling to put on my own socks. I couldn’t bend to reach my feet and I couldn’t lift my leg up high enough to put them on. It was so bad that I was using my Dad’s sock tool. Fast forward to today when I realized that I was not struggling to put my sock on. I am adding that to my NSV list. Woo…

Non-scale victory of the day!
Today’s non-scale victory (NSV) is a happy and sad one. I’ve been going through my clothes and doing something I have never done when I’ve lost a little weight – donate or toss what doesn’t fit. And there is a lot that won’t fit me any more. I’m nervous to get rid of things because I’ve always gained the weight I lost back. I’m determined that this is not going to happen this time. Thank you to…
