This is what I meant when I said “I might check emails”.

Not happening, fam 😂

Four years. 💜🦋💖

Today marks 4 years since my VSG surgery, and as I stand here in front of this beautiful butterfly mural, I can’t help but think about how much this journey has changed me.

The butterfly feels like the perfect symbol. Transformation. Growth. Becoming someone new while still honoring who you were before.

This journey has never been just about a number on a scale. It has been about learning to take care of myself, finding my strength, rebuilding my relationship with food and movement, navigating the hard seasons, celebrating the victories, and continuing to choose myself over and over again.

Four years later, I’m still learning. Still growing. Still transforming. And I’m incredibly proud of the woman who kept going, even when the journey didn’t look exactly how she imagined it would. 🦋

Here’s to the next chapter, and to remembering that transformation doesn’t have an expiration date. 💕🦋

Sometimes I look at these two photos and barely recognize the woman on the left. 💗 What I do recognize is resilience!

Because SHE always showed up anyway. Even when she failed over and over. And she grew from that.

At 275 pounds, I was terrified to walk into a gym. I was convinced everyone was looking at me, judging me, wondering why I was even there. Just making it through the front doors felt like a victory.

Today, at 159 pounds, the gym feels like a second home. 🩷 It’s a place where I’ve found strength, confidence, and an incredible community. Group fitness classes have become one of my favorite parts of the week. They’ve reminded me that we’re all there for the same reason… to become stronger, healthier, and a little better than we were yesterday. I get to cheer other people on, celebrate their wins, and be cheered on in return. That support has changed me in ways I never expected.

This journey has never been about becoming someone else. It’s been about becoming more me. Stronger. More capable. More confident. Not because of a number on the scale, but because I kept showing up, even when I was scared.

I’m so proud of the woman I was because she made this version of me possible. 🌸 She didn’t know she’d one day walk into the gym without fear. She didn’t know she’d look forward to workouts or find friendships inside those walls. She just kept taking the next step.

If you’re at the beginning of your journey and the gym feels intimidating, I understand that feeling more than you know. But one day, that place that scares you might become the place that reminds you just how capable you really are. 💕

Here’s to doing it on our own terms, celebrating every small win, and never underestimating how much can change when we simply refuse to give up. 💗

Just a gentle reminder that taking care of yourself is one of the most important things you can do. 💗

If you’re over 40 or if you have a family history or other risk factors for breast cancer, don’t put off your preventative screenings. A mammogram may not be anyone’s favorite appointment, but it can provide peace of mind and, when needed, help catch breast cancer early when treatment is often most effective. 💕

I’m sharing this photo in my mammogram cape because these reminders matter. If this post encourages even one person to schedule their screening, it’s worth sharing. 🩷

Take care of yourself. You deserve it. 💗
