Good morning!! 🌞 Guys, look!!!
I know at 220lbs I am still morbidly obese. But, I am down 22lbs!
I got here by showing up every day for the past 3 months & showing love instead of shaming myself. A first for me.
I will celebrate by doing what I’ve been doing!

Down another lb plus!! 🙌❤️💪 Almost hitting that 30lbs loss mark!
When I started keto in May I thought it would come off fast. But, it became clear that wasn’t going to happen. So, I hunkered down and decided since this was going to be a lifestyle I didn’t need it to go fast.
SW: 242.2–Didn’t think to take pics until I hit 237.4 & realized I may actually lose this weight!! 😊
I see the biggest difference in my face, but also in my energy level & my mindset. I truly used to think a healthy body was just not in the cards for me.

Talk w/my 76 yo mom (congestive heart failure,stroke, T2DM) & she’s been doing low-carb for years, but started keto this wk & she says she didn’t know she was living in a fog. She feels ALERT, energized, satiated, & like her brain is connected. Getting together to meal prep 🙌❤️

Push-ups Day 7: 18 (+10 from Day 1) Didn’t increase today, but that’s okay. Did 18 more today than if I hadn’t done them at all! Perspective, right!?!
Planks Day 37!
And, I threw in a no make-up selfie. Rosacea improving slowly, but still get very red when exercising. Oh well!!

There are days in this journey that I flop around and fail (eat something I know won’t serve me past the moment, for instance).
Even through those flops I have committed to showing up in other ways for the past 7 months. I no longer stop every single healthy thing when I flop

Greetings from my plate, everyone! 🌞
How did I celebrate my weigh-in today & losing 27+ lbs?
Bacon & eggs! 🙌 Pedicure later 😂
Headed out to get some steps soon! Push-up & Plank Challenge to come 😊
Start where you are. If you haven’t moved much, start by moving more. 💪
