Yeti says, make sure to take a few minutes to really relax.

tonight’s dinner is a shake and a veggie soup made with cauliflower, broccoli, spinach, carrot, onions, beef stock and an array of spices.

Welp, Last three days has been nonstop ice. snow. and sleet. We ended up staying in a hotel (shout out to Holiday Inn, for sure!) and had a nice little snow-cation. 

But then.. I came home to madness lol unpacked and got all situated to work 9-10 hour days the next 3 days annnnd woke up with the worse ear infection. 

Went to the doc and I’m off for the day, starting antibiotics. Apparently I have a chronic eustachian tube problems so, that’s fun. ANYWAY

Stepping on that scale...it about took me out. I have gained an ungodly amount of weight from being hurt. Which speaking of here's a little update with all that, I’ve been in PT 8 weeks and scheduled another 4. I met with a neurosurgeon and he doesn’t think I need surgery at this time! So, that has been exciting! I am healing it’s just a slow process. I did 15 minutes a day on the bike while at the hotel and then spent 5-10 minutes doing my PT stretches. Ugh anyway, It’s a long slow road but better than not walking and surgery so, I will take it. 

Back to wanting to lose another 40-60 lbs :| 

At least this time I know I can do it! 

✨3 weeks post-op Tummy Tuck & Breast Reconstruction✨ The last 3 weeks have not been fun. I know everybody experiences pain differently.. but y’all.. this surgery is no joke😂 Don’t get me wrong - I’m so happy I did it & have absolutely ZERO regrets.. but that shit hurts😂 Here’s a couple updates : •The last drain finally came out on Monday since it was starting to get infected. Plus the line was breaking from stripping all the time & I had trimmed it as much as I could. So it was time. Y’all weren’t lying when you said you make a complete 180 when the last drain comes out!! I feel soooo much better than I did just a couple days ago!! •My hips are still swollen.. hell my whole body still feels swollen but the 2nd picture shows how much it has gone down over 3 weeks! My back in particular is finally starting to return to its normal shape. Bruising is also getting better slowly. •I tried a compression binder that I bought before surgery & it felt like it was ripping my muscles apart so I actually decided to get some spanx high compression garments. These are feeling much better & actually more supportive! This is what my surgeon recommended from the start but I thought a binder would be better.. clearly he knows best😂 •Went back to work today & did better than I expected. Getting up & down is still sore but I can feel it getting better every day. •Slept in a bed over the weekend with about a hundred pillows & I just was not comfortable. Never thought I would be excited to get back home to my recliner 😂 •Biggest focus right now is my fluids & trying not to overdo it. I’ve always had an issue with getting enough fluids since VSG, but have got to start making it a bigger priority. That & not trying to be superwomen when I feel slightly normal 🙃 Anyways.. thank y’all for the continuous love & support! Couldn’t have made it this far without y’all!! #tummytuck #mastopexy #vsg #vsgjourney #wls #wlsjourney #wlscommunity #wlssupport #wlstransformation #tummytucksurgery (at USA, Canada and UK) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnYXNXjo6Tr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

My body dysmorphia is REAL today…this time last year I could’ve only DREAMED of being where I am today. Yet my brain tells me I look the same, the loose skin is really fucking with my head. All I can see is the loose skin, it makes me want to crawl out of my own skin because I’ve worked so so hard to get this far just to have yet another obstacle.

But nevertheless, I’m proud of my progress. I’m proud of the strides I’ve taken this year to improve my health! It’s a daily mental battle against eating disorders, but I’m winning today. And I’m making moves to hopefully get skin removal surgery.

I can’t afford the surgery, but I so desperately need it for both my mental & physical health.

The rashes & discomfort loose skin brings, on top of how badly it affects your mental health, takes a massive toll. Especially after working this hard to get to where I am.

If you can spare 2 seconds to even just reblog this post, I’d appreciate it so much🥺💖 and if anyone donates, please know I see you and I appreciate you so much.

Feeling good today & snuggling with my Maine baby, Hagrid. Amazing what a few days off can do for your soul. I soooo needed this recharge!

Tagging the following & anyone else who’d like to say hello on this impromptu selfie drop! @phlegyas-northerne @miles-for-mickey @fatmaninalittlesuit @fitgothgirl @belovedgoofball @m0tiv8me @hustleformuscle

leftover soup with lots of spinach added in - probably one of my favourite soups ever

felt extremely tired today but not sure if getting sick or it just over the VLCD.

From Surviving to Thriving 💕✨

2019 —> 2022

I had spent years of my life struggling with weight problems.

After exhausting all other options, I decided to undergo bariatric surgery in hopes of a new beginning and the chance for a healthier lifestyle.

But despite my dedication to diet and exercise, 125 lbs still seemed impossible to shed off until I stumbled across all natural supplements that promised sound health benefits.

Out of desperation, I decided it was worth giving them a try.

To my surprise, the supplements worked wonders!

I soon found myself feeling energized and more optimistic about life than ever before - something that had been missing from my routine for too long.

My gut health improved as well as my sleep quality which resulted in better digestion and higher metabolism - helping significantly with weight loss goals!

The road wasn't easy but thanks to these natural supplements I was able to stay motivated throughout the journey and finally reach my dream body goal after 15 months - weighing less than half what I used to be at one point!

Nowadays I enjoy an active lifestyle full of healthy habits while also continuing taking care of myself through daily supplement use – something that has become part of who I am now.

My story proves no matter how hard things are you should never give up on your dreams because eventually they will come true if you keep pushing forward day by day!

"I knew way before I lost weight it was going to be many doubters , many people who didn’t like me then who like me now , many people who feel like I’m moving different .. I’m here to tell you . Yes , I’m moving different because I can Yes , I’m moving different because pain taught me a lot Yes , I’m moving different because being comfortable is what got me in many situations . It’s okay to move different if it’s working for you and not for the benefits of others. .
