Small Tuesday Tally
This week marked the first time in my Zepbound journey that I didn’t hit my goal of losing 2 additional pounds. Honestly, I’m not surprised. Since moving my workout equipment to make room for the Christmas tree, I haven’t exercised once. That said, I still managed to lose 1.2 pounds, which I’m choosing to see Continue reading

Sleepy Update
I had big plans for an in-depth post tonight. But as the hours ticked by, exhaustion crept in, and here we are—a shorter post than I’d hoped for, written while I fight to keep my eyes open. My apologies, friends. Still, I want to share something exciting: today, I took a big step toward a Continue reading

Another Tuesday Tally
Quick update! Two more pounds down! I’m super excited! My doctor decided to keep me on the same 5mg dosage, which I’m cool with.

A Tired Tuesday Tally
I’ve officially hit the 22-pound mark, keeping up with my goal of losing at least 2 pounds per week! Honestly, I wasn’t sure I’d make it this week. Tracking my food has been a struggle, and my protein intake has been lower than it should be—mainly because I’ve been avoiding the grocery store. I mean, Continue reading

Busy Bee Weekend
This Weekend Was… A Lot. Thursday started with a follow-up Doctor’s appointment for my Zepbound prescription. My doctor seemed genuinely shocked when she found that I’m down 20 pounds in just seven weeks. She acted concerned while I was thrilled. It left me thinking, what’s “normal” here? Did I lose too much or is this Continue reading

Farm Adventures and an Early Thanksgiving
Yesterday and today, I couldn’t resist stocking up on more supplies to craft new earrings—it’s just too much fun! I was chatting with a friend about it. I decided in that conversation, I would start wearing earrings all the time. Now, I’m diving deeper into research on different techniques and exploring new ways to personalize Continue reading

Tuesday Tally on the Farm
The week took a nosedive straight into the weekend. By Saturday, I was sick, and I desperately wanted to call out of work. Unfortunately, I’d swapped a shift and calling out would have meant losing my precious Sunday off—essential for a visit to my mom’s. Now, it’s Tuesday, and despite last week’s chaos, this trip Continue reading

But let me tell you, Continue reading

Damned Epiphany
I think my kid is having anxiety attacks and it breaks my fucking heart. Tonight she was throwing a full on tantrum. She wanted to watch her show but every time I turned it on, she’d start screaming. So I would turn it off. She’d start screaming more. We continued in this fashion for about Continue reading
