Last weigh in of the year, and I’m so proud to say that I’ve lost 2.2 pounds this week for a total weight loss of 96 pounds! Thank you to my rock, @sandro7114.bsky.social because the journey would’ve been much more difficult without you! Can’t wait to reach even more amazing goals in the new year!

3.8lbs lost this week even though we attended a Friendsgiving and 2 other meals that were off my regular food plan! Thrilled that I can let life happen and still succeed with the knowledge of portion control! Total of 87.2lbs lost so far! #weightlossjourney

Fresh cut and beard trim. Decided not to do a full buzz cut this time and keep some hair on top!

Forgot to post on Saturday but was 83.4lbs down as of my weekly weigh-in last Saturday!

Weekly Weigh-In: 3.5lbs lost week for a total of 81.2lbs lost so far! Started at 447 and currently at 365.8! The journey is just beginning…. #weightloss

Weekly Weigh In: 1.5lbs lost for a total of 77.7lbs lost to date! #weightlossstory

Ready to pass out the quality candy: candy bars, Oreos, mini packs of gummies….none of that cheap stuff here!

Today was a big accomplishment for me! I completed a 5K during my hour of cardio! When I started my #weightlossjourney I would have not even come close! Not only losing weight, but getting stronger! #hearthealth

Weekly Weigh-In: 3lbs lost this week for a total of 76.2lbs lost in total. I’ve already lost 17.05% of my starting body weight in 5 months! The journey continues….. #weightlossstory

When I started this journey: I was a 5xl shirt, always tired, health on the decline, and extremely uncomfortable in my body. Now, I’m a 2x/3x, more energy, workout 6 days a week, and all my blood tests are in the healthy range! I’m not at my goal, but I’m so proud of my progress! #weightlossstory

Same sweater…73lbs less of me! #weightloss

4.2lbs lost this week even though I had a pulled back! I was really bummed earlier this week that I wouldn’t get to lift weights and worried I wouldn’t lose. This just shows the importance of getting in movement however you can! 73.2lbs lost so far! #weightloss

70lbs lost as of this morning! Life changes and the support of @sandro7114.bsky.social have allowed me to not just diet, but change the course of my health! #weightloss

Another #weightloss first for me today! For the first time in over 15 years, I was able to buckle the seatbelt on my airline seat without the use of a seatbelt extender. The Delta flight attendant literally gave me a small cheer and fist bump! Here’s to more weight loss firsts ahead!

Right at 70lbs lost as of this morning, and the journey is just beginning! #weightloss

These 2 apps have become the most powerful tools in my belt for my weight loss! Tracking my full nutrient intake as well as a diary of my exercise is helping me create a lifestyle change versus a temporary diet. #weightloss

2lbs lost this week for a total of 65lbs! Also increased the max weight on my chest press, pec fly, tricep extension, leg press and calf press! Added core to my cardio days. It’s a slow process, but the goal is to lose weight slow and steady so it’s healthy and maintainable. #weightloss

Sunday Weigh In: Lost 3lbs this week while increasing my max weights at the gym. That’s a total of 63lbs lost so far! One of the biggest parts of this journey is aligning my physical AND mental health. Setting boundaries and respecting the boundaries you set is tough, but it’s necessary. #weightloss

Healthy food can be delicious and visually beautiful. Tonight, I tried my hand at a Butternut & Pearl Barley Risotto with Chicken that had only 570 calories per serving and full of heart healthy ingredients! I think mine turned out almost as good as the picture!

Sunday Weigh-in: I’m down 4lbs this week and a total of 60lbs since starting this journey!!! I’m so excited for the journey ahead! Starting weight 447lbs. Current weight 387lbs! #weightloss #healthjourney

Gym callus….that means I get an award right?

Sunday Weigh In Celebration: lost 4.2lbs this week! Went up on all my weights at the gym. Broke my cardio record! Total weight loss of 54.4lbs since starting my #healthjourney and so proud of what I’ve achieved! #weightloss

Heart health does NOT have to be boring: Pan Seared Tilapia finished off with a quick poach, green beans with mushrooms, sun-dried tomatoes and onion, and sweet potato mash! #hearthealth

I’m starting with the man in the mirror… #weightloss #fiitnessjourney

A little morning rope play…

50lbs lost as of today! #weightloss

Early morning workouts have become something I actually enjoy on this #weightloss journey at #planetfitness

This Sunday’s weigh in marks a new milestone! For the first time in over 10 years, my weight starts with a 3! Yes, I have a long way to go, but this is such a big deal for me and am excited for the road ahead! Total weight loss so far: 48lbs! #weightloss

For many people, walking 2.12 miles and 5k steps isn’t a big deal. For me, it’s a new milestone. 3 months ago I would not have been able to do this due to knee pain and exhaustion. Today, I did it with energy to spare! #personalrecord #weightloss #littlewins @planetfitness.bsky.social

Sunday celebration post: 4.2lbs lost this week for a total weight loss of 44.2lbs!

This shirt used to struggle to stay buttoned, but now I can pull it away from my body! Little things bring big smiles! #weightloss

I know I look a bit like a dad on vacation in Hawaii, but I ain’t mad at this look today! The weight is coming off, and I’m much happier with what I’m seeing in the mirror! #weightloss

I’ve lost 40lbs, kept it off & established a diet/exercise regiment that is showing results. Mounjaro is helping, but it’s not magic, so you have to do the work! This is the most weight I’ve lost with no relapse in over 10 years! Special shot out to my ride or die, @sandro7114.bsky.social

It may not look like it from the picture, but I’m really starting to enjoy early morning workouts. #weightloss #planetfitness

Weekly Weigh In! 5.2lbs lost this week so celebrated with a morning cardio sesh! Total of 37.2lbs lost and 8.32% of original weight loss! #weightloss @planetfitness.bsky.social

Been focused on health lately. About 8 weeks ago I switched to a heart health diet and seriously start tracking what I ate. I did well and lost 20lbs. 7 days ago I added Mounjaro to my arsenal of tools and lost 12lbs this week alone! So excited for this next chapter of my #weightlossjourney

Civic Duty done! #vote

Cooling off after a sweaty morning of working in the garden!

Finished my perennial pollinator garden. Staggered plants that will bloom from spring through fall for a full season of flowers! #gardening

#nokingsday is a great time to post this quote from the Bible the Trump cult likes to thump: "Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen." 1 John 4:20

Mambo watches for @sandro7114.bsky.social to get home from work like he’s been gone for decades! #furbaby

That look Mambo gives @sandro7114.bsky.social and I that says, “You’re not the boss of me now!”……. #grandmashouse #spoileddog

Mambo is with his favorite person! #grandma

Massachusetts bound! Mambo is dreaming of seeing Grandma and Grandpa! #roadtrip @sandro7114.bsky.social

End of the World is my top track on #mileycyrus Something Beautiful followed closely by Walk of Fame! #newmusic

First Lilly bloom of the season!

Waking up every day in 2025

@sandro7114.bsky.social this is Mambo to you every day!

No one eyes you as hungrily as a #furbaby when you have a cracker! #doglover

6 years ago @sandro7114.bsky.social changed my life forever. Happy Anniversary to my favorite person, my safe space, my champion, and the person who I want to spend all of my tomorrows with! #anniversary #gaycouple
