I have some really good news today, I’ve reached a couple of milestones in various self-improvement journeys and I wanted to share them in a longer form than a single toot can manage (and in a more easily-digestible form than a toot thread, without spamming those who follow me who really don’t care about this stuff.
First: electrolysis on my cheeks is done! I had some help getting started, thanks to my GoFundMe donors, but now I can pay for it on my own through my courier work. The next session will be levelling it off, and then we’ll start working our way down my chin.
Second: my weight is now 119kg! I started out at over 147kg in February. I don’t even feel like I’ve changed anything, aside from taking weight loss medication (Wegovy). Of course, in reality, a lot has changed. The medication is making it so I have digestion problems when I eat fatty foods, so my body is essentially training me not to eat those in the first place. And I taste food for longer. I can still taste the jam scone I had for lunch, and it’s almost 3:30pm :)
I don’t know how long I’ll keep this blog here, but it’ll do for now. I’m calling it my Temporary CalBlog. If it still has that name a few years from now, I wouldn’t be entirely surprised.
