This is my journey to become a healthier me. It began on January 26, 2010 and stalled out... I got a type 2 diabetes diagnosis on March 30, 2022 and started to focus on my health again. On November 8, 2022 I added Ozempic to my toolbox to help me shed some pounds and inches!

Week 47 Weigh In!

This was a nice way to start off the week! With a lot of holidays coming up, I've been thinking about the possibility that my weight loss will stall, but I'm also very okay with slower losses and I don't want to miss out on celebrations and events. Today is my son's 14th birthday, and he wants to go to an all you can eat restaurant. So that's what we're going to do. I won't eat my money's worth but with restaurant prices, who can nowadays anyway? I'm just going to spend time with my son and enjoy what works for me. Then this weekend is Thanksgiving, my mother's birthday is coming up soon, then mine as well as two other family birthdays before Christmas! This time of year is crazy. But I made it through just fine last year on Ozempic and still enjoyed myself, and I'm sure I will this year, too.





While progressing milestones have been slower, I am still super proud of each and every one! I can't even imagine carrying nine gallons of paint for even ten minutes, let alone for every moment of my life. While that includes weight I lost on my own prior to starting Ozempic, I have worked hard for those pounds and they sure still count!
