Realities of weight loss



Recommended Posts

Love this article:

Water park with my kids going down water slides wearing a bikini without even wrapping a towel around me.

But I see candid pictures and critique the "softness" that almost six weeks of no running and no yoga has wrought. Just got clearance to exercise again, hooray! But taking care to do it for the love of the activity and the health and fitness it brings rather than to "fix" my body.

Anyhow, I needed this read today, which appeared on my Facebook timeline because one of my favorite yoga instructors, the one whose strength truly turned me onto yoga. I thought someone else might need the read too.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
