I'm 5'1"... SW: 244; CW: 178; surgery 8/18/15

NSV:

1. I am an independent distributor for Young Living Essential Oils. I have a Facebook group to keep connected with my downline. There are several people in the group that have never met me or know me personally. I posted a video last night about one of the ways I use Lemon oil and immediately got 3 messages and a text about "how skinny/amazing you look!!" I didn't even think about how I looked when I did the video because I do them at least monthly... Sometimes more. It felt awesome!

2. I am now wearing a 15/16 jean and Large shirts comfortably but mediums don't look that bad. I wear scrubs and our logo tshirt to work and I've had to size down from 2XL to L. I was even having to stretch the bottom of the shirt to fit over my giant ass.

3. I've been taking a lot more hot baths lately because the Water actually covers me and I don't touch the sides anymore!

4. I know it's terrible for circulation but I cross my legs all the time...comfortably!

SVs: 1. Last week I hit my "wedding weight" from 11 years ago which was the smallest I had ever been as an adult.

2. This morning I realized that I'm only 8 lbs from my drivers license weight... Which was a lie from the beginning!

I hope to hit my goal weight of 135-140 by 1 year which will line up with our annual family photo shoot. I'd love to do some boudoir for my husband after I get to goal... Not during the family ones of course ;)

      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.
