Pardon My Weight

So yesterday was a pretty big day for me in my weight loss journey. I hit my 100 day tracking streak on the @loseitapp - I don’t think there’s been a time in the past 15+ years where I’ve consistently tracked more than 2 weeks. Simultaneously, I also crossed the 75lbs lost threshold, which is equally as huge for me. Year after year, I continually make these big new year resolutions and consistently fail to follow through. This year was different and I actually stuck with it. I’m really, REALLY stinking close to being under 300lbs… which is absolutely crazy. I’ve told myself since I started that I would start working out and going to the gym if I ever got to be under 300lbs. Now that I’m only 2.7 lbs away, I’m trying to prepare myself for the next phase. . .. ... .... ..... ....... #weightloss #diet #countingcalories #loseit #mounjaro #mounjaroweightloss #loseweight #weightlossjourney #sustainableweightloss #joinsequence #GLP1 #weightlosstreatments https://www.instagram.com/p/Cq6ly20LGmR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Sooo… it’s been awhile since I’ve checked in. Still tracking but have had a few boozy March Madness days which didn’t lead to much of a loss this week. Kind of a bummer but I also didn’t gain, so that’s something! Anyways, I finally hit my protein goal today! Went a little over my calorie goal but overall, pretty good. . .. ... .... ..... ....... #weightloss #diet #countingcalories #loseit #mounjaro #mounjaroweightloss #loseweight #weightlossjourney #sustainableweightloss #joinsequence #GLP1 #weightlosstreatments https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp_mYrmNNyV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Sooo… I’ve been seeing a lot of progress pictures with people taking Mounjaro and they are super motivating. I don't take too many pictures of myself, but I do have a few pictures in an extremely too-tight undershirt that has given me an idea how much I've actually lost. I can tell some noticeable differences but overall still have a long ways to go! Inching closer to the under 300lb mark!! . .. ... .... ..... ....... #weightloss #diet #countingcalories #loseit #mounjaro #mounjaroweightloss #loseweight #weightlossjourney #sustainableweightloss #joinsequence #GLP1 #weightlosstreatments https://www.instagram.com/p/CpqmlccLgDF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I have officially completed the weight loss ⛰️ mountain! I am weighing in at 311.8, which is the lowest weight I have been since 2016. It’s honestly hard to believe… I thought I’d have my own episode on #my600lblife on @tlc before I’d ever be under 300lbs… but I’m only 12lbs away! I still have a long ways to go but this is a pretty big achievement for this guy. . .. ... .... ..... ....... #weightloss #diet #countingcalories #loseit #mounjaro #loseweight #caloriedeficit #nutrition #macrotracking #weightlossjourney #sustainableweightloss https://www.instagram.com/p/CpTqhVkL0lZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Welp, I went a tad over my calorie goal after a late-night uncrustable, but overall not a bad day. Fasted for 14 hours and only snacked a little. . .. ... .... ..... ....... #weightloss #diet #countingcalories #loseit #mounjaro #loseweight #caloriedeficit #nutrition #macrotracking #weightlossjourney #sustainableweightloss https://www.instagram.com/p/CpKOGPwu80S/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Had a decent tracking day yesterday - fasted for 14 hours and stayed under my calorie goal… barely. I plan on going to the store today and focusing on protein! . .. ... .... ..... ....... #weightloss #diet #countingcalories #loseit #mounjaro #loseweight #caloriedeficit #nutrition #macrotracking #weightlossjourney #sustainableweightloss https://www.instagram.com/p/CpIYiI8reZq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Today was a good but busy day at work. Didn’t take a lunch and had a quick PB & J in between meetings. Stayed under my calorie goal all week but still struggling to come close to my protein goal. I think I should hit 2 lbs down when I weigh in. . .. ... .... ..... ....... #weightloss #diet #countingcalories #loseit #mounjaro #loseweight #caloriedeficit #nutrition #macrotracking #weightlossjourney #sustainableweightloss https://www.instagram.com/p/CpF3xHJLxec/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Stayed under my calorie goal but that’s about it for the day. I didn’t come close to my protein goal, largely because I went out for lunch which threw me off a bit. Overall it’s been a decent week thus far and should be 2lbs down by Saturday. . .. ... .... ..... ....... #weightloss #diet #countingcalories #loseit #mounjaro #loseweight #caloriedeficit #nutrition #macrotracking #weightlossjourney #sustainableweightlossplan https://www.instagram.com/p/CpCOLp9ufWH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Today was a struggle. I didn’t make terrible choices Burt I wasn’t a fan of my frozen lunch and am struggling tot make a dent in my protein goals. I am going to specifically focus on high protein items when I go grocery shopping this weekend. Overall I was under my calorie goal and fasted for 14 hours. . .. ... .... ..... ....... #weightloss #diet #countingcalories #loseit #mounjaro #loseweight #caloriedeficit #nutrition #macrotracking #weightlossjourney #sustainableweightloss https://www.instagram.com/p/Co_2OtOOIsI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Day 53 in the books! Struggling to hit my protein goals… went to Costco over lunch and couldn’t say not the the $2.50 hot dog deal. Other than that, it was a pretty good day. . .. ... .... ..... ....... #weightloss #diet #countingcalories #loseit #mounjaro #loseweight #caloriedeficit #nutrition #macrotracking #weightlossjourney #sustainableweightloss https://www.instagram.com/p/Co8cWVyLBki/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

For a Monday, today was a pretty good day. I didn’t get in my protein shake and could have made some better choices, but stayed in a calorie deficit and fasted for 15 hours. . .. ... .... ..... ....... #weightloss #diet #countingcalories #loseit #mounjaro #loseweight #caloriedeficit #nutrition #macrotracking #weightlossjourney #sustainableweightloss https://www.instagram.com/p/Co6GudttjdS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Today was ok… went a little bit over my calorie goal and didn’t come close to my protein goal. Tomorrow I’ll be more disciplined. . .. ... .... ..... ....... #weightloss #diet #countingcalories #loseit #mounjaro #loseweight #caloriedeficit #nutrition #macrotracking #weightlossjourney #sustainableweightloss https://www.instagram.com/p/Co3ggGxrlKr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

50 straight days of counting calories and watching my macros. Didn’t lose as much on this weeks weigh in after over indulging last weekend for the Super Bowl. Overall, everything is going in the right direction and I feel tons better. . .. ... .... ..... ....... #weightloss #diet #countingcalories #loseit #mounjaro #loseweight #caloriedeficit #nutrition #macrotracking #weightlossjourney #sustainableweightloss https://www.instagram.com/p/Co1BfuuteoR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s been a bit since I’ve checked in here. I’m currently down 13.5lbs since the beginning of the year, 61.3lbs total. I made a commitment at the beginning of the year to really focus on my macros & staying in a calorie deficit. I still have a long ways to go, but I’m feeling really good right now. Now off to do some shopping with my girls and enjoy this sunny, relatively warm February day! .. ... .... ..... ....... #weightloss #diet #countingcalories #loseit #mounjaro #loseweight #caloriedeficit #nutrition #macrotracking #weightlossjourney #sustainableweightloss https://www.instagram.com/p/CoSswUNPaCA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Down 56 pounds. 224 pounds off of my arthritic knees. This is the lowest weight I have been since 2017! I can now go up 2 flights of stairs without being out of breath and can actually function. My of being under 300 pounds is officially in sight! . .. ... .... ..... ....... #weightloss #diet #countingcalories #loseit #mounjaro #loseweight https://www.instagram.com/p/CnsHFepPpoX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I haven’t posted on social media for quite some time. Over this past year, I reached my heaviest weight ever at 380 lbs and now at the end of the year, I’m at my lowest weight since June 2019. I felt pretty hopeless, as all of my weight loss attempts fizzled out within 2 weeks. Then in June, I stumbled across a news article that caught my attention (https://www.cnn.com/2022/06/06/health/weight-loss-drug-diabetes-wellness/index.html ) discussing new GLP-1 medicines and how they are delivering substantial weight loss that rivals results seen in those that have weight loss surgery. In August I received my first prescription for Mounjaro and the impact was immediate. I no longer found myself thinking about food constantly. I finally felt what it was like to have a semi-normal relationship with food. I am now able to stop eating when I'm full. I've stopped a lot of my late-night snacking. Monaro has been a game-changer for me, as I have lost 47.8 pounds so far. I never thought I would be able to get under 300 lbs again but I now feel like it's within reach. Here's to a successful 2023! “Obesity should be treated like any other chronic disease – with effective and safe approaches that target underlying (causes of) disease” . .. ... .... ..... ....... #weightloss #diet #mounjaro #2023 #loseweight https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm3E-q4tRkk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I wasn’t going to do this. But this time it feels a little different. I wasn’t going to document my 1,000th weight loss journey as it always results in failure.. and a sad reminder that I am continually gaining weight instead of losing it. But I’ve started going to the gym a few times a week and feeling better. I also recently started taking a relatively new medicine called @mounjaro_us and it has curbed my appetite and snacking in a significant way. I feel like it’s a game changer. I’m suddenly not constantly thinking of food or planning out my next meal or. what I’m going to snack on next. Now I’m finding myself forgetting to eat at times and the amount I eat is significantly less than before. I know it’s early on but I’m feeling optimistic. #weightlossjourney #weightloss #fitnessjourney #mounjaro #mounjaroweightloss #healthjourney #motivation #weightlossmotivation #healthyweightloss #diet #lifestylechange https://www.instagram.com/p/ChYlquor-Th/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
