Shutterbean Weight Loss

Shutterbean Weight Loss!

I only made that the name of this post Shutterbean Weight Loss because I have seen that it has been googled a gazillion times. SEO, do your thing!

So, let’s talk about my weight loss. If this kind of thing is triggering for you, I advise you to stop here.

I do have to let you know that I am still very much on this journey, I am by no means an expert.

As Ina says:

Ha! The journey hasn’t been fun. It’s been hard and my hard work has paid off.

If you want to hear about how I decided that I am worth the effort and was tired of making excuses, let’s gooooo.

This is me now. Strongest I’ve ever been!

This is what I looked like 55lbs. ago. This is June 2022.
