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…

Three Pounds and a Small Miracle
Celebrate! I did it! I did it. Not climbed-a-mountain did it. Not ran-a-marathon did it. But honestly? This might be harder. After what felt like the longest, most stubborn, most personality-filled plateau in human history, the scale finally moved… down. Three pounds down. Now, I know what you’re thinking. “Three pounds? That’s it?” Oh no, my friend. That’s not “it.” That’s a full-blown…

Breaking Through the Plateau
When the Scale Stalls but You Don’t There’s a moment in every weight loss journey that feels especially cruel. You’re doing the things.Making better choices.Showing up for yourself in ways you didn’t before. And then… the scale stops moving. If you’re on a GLP-1 journey, this moment can feel even more confusing. After seeing steady progress, the plateau can feel like hitting an invisible…

I should have said no.
How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals? During the past three months, I have been really good at saying no to food and drink that I know I should eat sparingly or not at all. Yesterday I didn’t and boy did I suffer. A coworker brought in some garlic focaccia that his wife made. It looked and smelled delicious. Bread of any kind has always been my favorite…
What a difference (almost) a year makes!
I regret that I didn’t take before photos when I started my healthy journey on December 17, 2025. I decided to try and find a decent face picture from a year ago. The closest I could find is one from May 2025 when I weighted 30 pounds more than today. I’ve lost 25 since December 17, 2025 and I’ve been trying to “see” it when I look at myself. Here is my comparison photo that I just posted to…

Day 57 - down 13.4
I started my GLP-1 health journey 57 days ago. This week, my weight loss stalled with me being down 13.4 pounds. I actually gained 5 pounds recently, but when I started being more strict and I re-lost that 5 plus two more – stalling out at 307.5. (That is very stressful for me to admit) I know I’m still losing, but gaining muscle, which is good. I can tell that I’m losing from the body scans I…

GLP-1 progress report
I took my first dose of GLP-1 meds on 1/9/26. I have phone coaching from a nurse, a dietitian, and an exercise coach. I see the doctor every 4 weeks. I have lost 11.2 pounds since my first shot. In total, I have lost 17 pounds since I started eating better and moving more, which was 12/17/25. Today was the first day that I really just didn’t want to eat – ANYTHING! It was a rough day. I go to…
Microwave Ricotta Egg Mug
I wanted to try something new to enhance my breakfast of eggs in a mug. I read that you can add some ricotta cheese. So…. I sprayed my mug with avocado oil. Into the mug I added two eggs and two tablespoons of ricotta cheese. I scrambled it up with a fork until the ricotta was incorporated. I added a little salt and freshly ground pepper. Microwave for 1 minute. Stir. Microwave for another 45…
