Another Tuesday Tally on a Wednesday
Last week was tough—my depression hit hard after some issues at home, and I had two of the lowest days I’ve felt in years. Yesterday, I finally started feeling like myself again. With just a short shift today, I’m hopeful that some rest will have me back to 100% by tomorrow. On a brighter note, Continue reading

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.

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

Quick Tuesday Tally
I had high hopes of shedding 20 pounds this week, but a visit to my mom’s put a little detour in my plans. While I stayed active—lots of moving around, errands, and good old-fashioned family chaos—I didn’t get to squeeze in my usual exercise routine. Still, I managed to hit my weekly goal and dropped Continue reading
