So, as some of you may know from my previous posts, I moved out, was struggling - blah blah blah. I'll call it a self-induced plateau because I was doing stupid *kitten* like eating everybodies chocolate birthday cake (yes, twice), and generally displaying a ridiculous lack of control. Well, I am more settled in now, on antidepressants and back on my game. I am now at 161lbs, which is just 1lb away from my mini goal of getting out of the 160s. I have just 13lbs (1lb less than a stone!) to go to my goal weight, and have lost 35lbs (2 stone, 7lbs - almost 2.5stone). I feel great and I love my body now.
Pics;
(Wearing a swimsuit for the first time in more than a year!)
(I finally can see my ribs starting to appear from under their layer of fat! This is with me leaning back, but I haven't been able to see them for years)
And my face is so much slimmer!
Before;
(Haha, my hair is way longer than that now. It wasn't helping my fat face when it was that short).
Now;
I am officially a size 12 (UK), by the way, down from an 18. I am slimmer than I have been in years and I am SO proud of myself. We can do it!

You look great! Love the hair! What is your daily hair routine? Are you a naturalista?
Thank you! Yes, I am a naturalista :flowerforyou:
I co-wash mostly daily, and never use heat. I did occasionally flat iron, but gave that up. Last heat application was on 5th July! I air dry 100% of the time, using a PVA towel to blot excess water. If I do a WnG, I pineapple, baggy the pineapple then cover with a satin bonnet. Works great
I DC once a week, and clarify beforehand. Other than that, I don't use shampoo.
I detangle in the shower too. If you have any more questions, specific or otherwise, feel free to ask! I love natural hair and love mine very much ^_^0 -
