I do not share my experience to give you a template for what to do or what not to do in life, fitness, food or with weight loss. I share in hopes of inspiring others to start, start working towards a healthier and happier life by taking ownership of where they are and where they are going. Quick fix solutions along with guilt and shame based marketing schemes lie.There is not one right way for everyone, but there is a right way for you and you worth doing the work to figure that out. I encourage all to seek guidance from medical professionals, dietitians, therapy and vetted fitness professional as needed.

Please Reach out to your drs office when you have questions. Not only will they answer you as they do other patients but you are responsible and being respectful to the hard work your doctors has done. It will also provide a documented process to look at when you have a follow up. We please do not look at it as you taking up someone else’s time. You matter!

Hi April! I just wanted to assure you when you talk about times or issues that are not as happy or positive as you generally are, that it's ok with those of us in your audience. We are here for you through that too. You are a very positive person, but no one can be expected to maintain that 100% of the time. You seem to feel bad if you touch on something that isn't entirely happy. I hope that's not for our sake. You are a human and we all have challenges and unhappy moments and it's ok to let us in when those topics come up. We're here for all of it. And love you for all of you and all your moments in your journey. Thank you for this update! You are doing so great, and have a lot of good insights to share! Thank you!!

Always remember, you are not a burden. Your questions aren't a burden. You are deserving of asking and having questions answered. Keep going ❤❤

love this color on you!!

[@AldWitch]

Everyone else has said what I was going to say! Don't feel bad at all about taking up people's time. You are not monopolising. Answering your questions is one of the things they are paid to do. I was customer service in health. We are always happy to help.

I think your practitioners wouldn’t mind if you email your questions. They’d probably prefer that to you being anxious. Rooting for you ❤

[@chalitzaa]

The a answer is yes, stop when full and fraction your meals as required

[@catieandthebopeeps]

I’m waiting for my surgery date right now. I’m getting a traditional duodenal switch with a 300cc. Listening to your experience is so extremely encouraging to me! I’m so happy that things are getting noticeably better for you every day! ❤

[@zaramiller6568]

I've followed you from the VERY beginning. (Waited for new posts as you made them) Your journey has helped me and probably many others. You're such a lovely person, April. Thank you for sharing so much of your weightloss ups amds downs. ❤

I'm a chronically anxious person, and I've found it very helpful to reframe the way I imagine people's reactions.

Girl your face! I can see the difference in your face. As in the weight falling off. You look better in the eyes too.

[@shannonbaumgart548]

I can see changes in your face , the hard work is showing and your smile pairs beautifully ! So glad you had your friend to spend time with .. You are the friend we all want or should have ! You’re doing so well , keep going ! 🎉

[@MultiDragonfly17]

I've been with you since the very beginning. I'm so proud of all you've accomplished!

[@user-dd1es2zm7e]

Yesterday is just a lesson, tomorrow is just a hope today is what matters. Forgive yourself for yesterday and make decisions today to make tomorrow better. Looking back is only beneficial if you are recognizing your lessons. To punish yourself for the past only cramps what you could accomplish today. You have this!! You are amazingly and beautifully made

[@randilynn2422]

I liked seeing you stop yourself mid negative spiral. It is such a hard habit to curb, I too definitely deal with that.

[@Amanda-zt7fu]

I’ve been following you for a long time and I’m so proud of you. Really glad you got the surgery, it’s going to truly change your life. I started mounjaro and really hoping it’ll help me. I started at 318, and down to 303 now. Keep going girl!!!🎉

[@Blueowl896]

Eat proteine first. Then eat the rest till you full. If you not hungry don't eat. As simple as that. ❤

[@ShanteR634]

I love you my friend ❤ It was such a wonderful visit and seeing you always makes me so happy
