I'm 16 months out from surgery and almost to my huge main goal of 202 pounds lost which would put me at just under an overweight BMI and at 175 pounds. But ideally I would like to lose more and I feel like I can do it. But my weight loss is slowing dow

Posting super early this time because Daisy woke me up thanks to the thunderstorm so I came to work early so here I am.

Last week saw no movement and this week saw just a pound. I know losing will be slower the further out I get but I only have

I had my hair appointment yesterday. I have pretty short hair now so I go every 6 weeks. I've gone to this salon since I moved to this area 6 years ago so they know me there. I usually walk in and don't even walk up to the desk, they see me, say hi and

Today is my 9 year cancerversary - I m cancer was a particularly aggressive form of breast cancer (triple negative) which is more common in young women which makes sense since I was 25 when I was dx. With that form the recurrence rate is super high bet

I'm obsessed with podcasts. I listen to a ton of them, between those and audiobooks my commute and getting ready time is pretty enjoyable.

One of those I listen to regularly is This American Life. I listened to the most recent episode and it wa

Saw my surgeon today - my insurance dropped their whole network so it's been a very long time since I was there. The last time I was there I weighed 308 pounds. They were pretty shocked with how far I've come - which I have to say felt pretty damn good

Had a big drop this week of 4 pounds. Any time that happens at this point I'm so freakin happy. I have ten pounds to go to reach my original goal. TEN. That seems insane to me when I had 202 pounds to lose.

HW: 377

LW: 189

I'm finally, finally getting labs done. I have been completely compliant in all things minus getting labs done for numerous reasons that include my insurance company dropping a huge network and I live in a small area without many options. But basically

I have a ton of clothes in varying sizes from over the years like I'm sure many of you have from being different weights. So throughout my weight loss I've done my best to wear those clothes as long as I freaking can to save me money and basically shop

I very badly want to have an arm lift done at some point next year. It would be the only PS I'm considering actually.

Due to a mastectomy 9 years ago I have no lymph nodes in my right armpit (or wherever they take them from lol). I have had no

Happy Monday! Had a big weight loss this week of 4 pounds - this late in the game for me feels amazing. I've been feeling hungrier the last few weeks but I've still been between 600-800 calories a day, trying to cling onto that as long as I can to opti

I do my weekly weigh ins on Monday mornings before work and today was the day I reached ONEDERLAND! I weighed 199 today :) I haven't seen that in 9 years and that was only for a few weeks and that was during chemo lol so I don't feel that really counts

Holy shitballs I had a big loss this week! 5 pounds! Another .4 ounces and I would have been in ONEDERLAND and would have probably fainted right off the scales yesterday. I don't know what I did differently, I know I ate fish twice last week but beside
