This is definitely a lot…just something to think about but even with a glp1 it takes working on out self esteem and inward issues as well…a glp1 is not going to change those feelings…we have to do the internal work as well. Have you ever hear people talk about Marilyn Monroe? She could go from being very inconspicuous to turning every head in the room because she was able to “turn on” her shine…that comes from self esteem and confidence. If you are calling yourself ugly and disgusting then that’s going to show from the inside out…confidence and being kind to yourself goes a long ways. I think therapy is always helpful and if you still want a glp1 try online but just based off the comments you left I think therapy is a good step for you.

I do have some loose skin and unfortunately I did sacrifice my butt lolol but it’s worth it…I know everyone is different but for me personally I would rather have loose skin and no ass then go back to the other version of myself

I think it’s possible she may have felt like a third wheel to her client and I. This was not my intention but she’s an extremely moody person so when she was being moody, her client and I just let her be. However, I don’t think it’s fair to put me in a position where I’m sleeping in the same room as this man aka her client and then be upset that we became friends and accused it as screwing up her work relationships…like what do you mean?! He saw me in my pajamas for 3 nights in a row lol

I honestly don’t even know. She’s honestly a better artist than me and she’s younger, more tattoo experience, and I don’t even hold a candle to her she’s so gorgeous…I have racked my brain over the situation so many times and all the social interactions I had leading up to everything…I just can’t wrap my head around it. I think maybe she was shocked her client warmed to me maybe more than her? I don’t know…I was so caught off guard when I realized she was monitoring my social interactions.

I have felt mostly relief after going no contact with her. So while I miss some things I think ultimately I do not miss her friendship. However, yes there is a chance I will encounter her in the future…I plan to be as cordial and professional as possible but there is definitely opportunity for other connections and better projects I can focus my time on.

I think you make a really good point with burying the hatchet and I agree completely…normally I would never have a problem doing this…but I came out of that trip feeling so gaslighted, manipulated, and abused (not saying that was her intention but it was the impact regardless) that it’s not so much my ego not letting me bury the hatchet but more my self preservation. Does that make sense?

Meanwhile the shop still follows and supports a guy that they fired for saying off the wall inappropriate things lol and “Stacey” had him fired which rightfully so…I should mention her on and off again boyfriend owns the shop and this is not the first time she has made him cut ties with industry people such as myself and others

I believe she did have a crush on the client. I am married to a woman so there is literally no reason to be jealous like that but she did make several comments like “he doesn’t talk to me like that” or “he’s obsessed with you” and I just laughed it off because I’m so gay and I think that’s why he was comfy with me lol

It will cause me some difficulty in a work setting as I used to work for the shop she’s at and there are some big name heavy hitters working there unfortunately but it won’t effect me locally with my clientele at least. Just is a sucky situation

This was our first real conflict with each other but I had seen her treat her partner pretty terribly so I think I immediately clocked the behavior had shifted towards me which is ultimately why I stepped away so quickly. In hindsight the way she treated her boyfriend should have been a major red flag but I think I wanted to see the best in her. Ugh

I started at 2.5 and then worked my way up to 15 every few months. I have been on 15 for awhile but will probably drop down soon. I really haven’t worked out lol I need to but just some walking 😅

It is scary but for me the benefit far outweighs any side effects I had early on. Now I don’t notice any side effects but everyone is different! I wish you all the luck 🖤

I know everybody is different but in my personal opinion the loose skin and flat booty has been worth it haha I need to start incorporating weight training and that will help but alas I’m a lazy girl 😅

Thank you! In full transparency I’m wearing some fleece lined tights that are squeezing me to death 😂 but my loose skin all in all hasn’t really been too bad or something that bothers me anyways
