  • I lost 11.6lb in June. I'm so pleased with myself. Would it be nice if it were more? Yes, but it wasn't less so I have no reason to complain! I hope that today will be the last time in my life I will ever weigh more than 311lbs. (Well, with the exception of regular fluctuation in the following week!)
  • My goal for July is to get below 300lbs.
  • Also, I've noticed I sleep easier. I don't think I have as much of a sleep apnea issue. (Not diagnosed, but I used to wake up because I couldn't breathe.) I'm happy to have this change. Hopefully I'll get back to where I don't snore anymore either. Haha. Have to save J from that.

Non-Scale Victories (NSV) are the little things that you notice that make it worth it and show you that a difference is being made. It can be with how you feel, your health, old clothes fitting, etc.

  • I stopped by Lane Bryant today just to see if they had any tops that I might like. They did, 4. I bought a 22/24 in all of them. Y'all. Did you know that Lane Bryant is known to run small? And I basically just went down a full size comfortably. I really thought I was still a 26/28. I picked up that size first. It was way too big. I'm so glad. I can't wait to have even more options! There were a few tops that I couldn't find in anything larger than an 18 or 20. I'm nearly there already.

Did they notice my weight loss? Yeah, they did!

Here's when:

April 15, 2025

  • K & C at work commented that I looked different. Then C asked if I had lost weight and I told her I had. K asked how much I'd lost. I told them 20lbs. They were so happy for me. It's nice when people are rooting for you.

  • A client didn't recognize me today. She said I looked different and good. She was impressed.

April 27, 2025

  • Dad said, "Now today I can tell you're losing weight." He was the first to notice but then he also noticed there wasn't much of a change for a while there.

  • "Just because there's a certain time on the clock doesn't mean it's time to eat."
  • "Why is food the most important part of your day?"
  • "Hungry to bed, hungry to rise, makes a girl a smaller size."
  • "To waste, or to the waist?"
  • "Being hungry isn't an emergency."
  • "You are not a dog, why are you rewarding yourself with food?"
  • "What you eat in private you wear in public."
  • "You don’t need a cheat day, you’ve been living a cheat life!"

I have started a weight loss journey on Monday, March 3, 2025 at 360lb exactly. Then on Monday, March 10, 2025, I added a compound tirzepatide thanks to my doctor. I was weighing in at a whopping 355.6lb.

Why am I making these changes?

  • I want to feel pretty.
    • I'm stoked to see how my face card upgrades.
  • I want to find nice clothes and look good.
    • I honestly cannot wait to be able to walk into a store and not have to go to the hidden little rack in the back for the fat girls and most of that not even fitting.
  • I want my health to be better than it ever has been.
  • I want to move freely in / with my body.

I've decided to create some goals and rewards for myself. I'm starting this list at 339.4lb so there will not be any retroactive rewards.

🗹 330lb

  • This is where I tend to give up and I am not doing that this time. I refuse to give up. This one is a big one for me. It will be 30lbs lost.
    • Reward: New Bag! (Honestly, I already ordered it and I should be below 330lb by the time it gets here.)
  • It took me about a week longer to get here than I thought it would but I did it!

🗹 315lb

  • I am so close to being out of the 300s! This is my 25% goal. I want to reward myself with something that makes me feel good.

I am aiming for a more elevated casual look but I don't want to age myself. I'm trying to decide what style I want to wear.

I feel very comfortable in nice flats, well fitting leggings, and a nice top or even just a well fitting tshirt. I am a millenial after all!

I also like to wear nice jewelry and if I can find a good bag, I'll take it!

Brands recommended to me:

  • Eileen Fisher
  • Quince (iffy on this one)
  • Universal Standard

My Goal:

  • Elevated Casual
  • Capsule Wardrobe
  • Flexible Color Choices (my favorites right now are light olive green, navy, and white, with some black sometimes)
