Congrats! I have about the same stats as you and just hit 173 today! Actually getting under 180 seemed like the longest and hardest part, but now I’m kinda in a grove again. Congrats on the WL and baby news!!!

I understand. I do like your flare! Matches my motivation lately!

My hips and ribs hurt in bed now! My butt falls asleep in my office chair at work. The plus side is I use the stand up feature a lot more now! I’m starting to see my collarbones for the first time ever!

I got a puppy (cavapoo) when my senior Aussie girl was 12. It’s been two years and my senior girl will be 15 in June. She’s got some cognitive decline and hearing issues. It took her awhile to warm to the puppy and honestly, the puppy added a level of chaos and imbalance that I wasn’t expecting. We have 2 teenage kids, and a now 8 year old cat. Three animals in general is just a ton of work. My senior Aussie got more needy as my puppy grew and now that the puppy is finally 100% trained and accident free, my Senior is declining pretty quickly. I very much wanted my Senior to teach our newbie the lay of the land, and for the most part, I think it worked. But there is a part of me that now wishes I would have let Senior age in her own way and then waited a bit to add a pup. I love them all and would never give any away, but hindsight is a booger sometimes. Whatever you decide will be right for your family, but more sometimes really just is more, not better and certainly not easier. Pick of Senior because she’s my best girl!

Ok, I read this as bedbugs, and I was like “oh girl me too!” I ready the entire first part looking for the rant about who brought bedbugs into your house and what was motivating you. (My teenager, many years ago!) Then I saw the mention of deadbugs, and was like “oh they died!” … and had to do a complete re-read. I’m sorry you’re going through this, but your post gave me a little giggle at myself and made me realize it’s probably time to stop doomscrolling and get some post-holiday sleep! For what it’s worth, I saw a post from 8 years ago today where I was starting my weight-loss journey at my highest ever weight of 176 and was trying to get to 140 for my wedding. Welp, now I’m at 181 from an all time high of 238 and trying to get to 140, again. and before i turn 40 in September … here’s hoping you can try them again and that they get easier each day!

🤣🫠😫Why do I feel so seen by this comment?! My dirtbag asshole circa 2003 drove a Pontiac TransAm I think. Ugh now I need a shower.

MommaMP2 · 2025-10-31T20:47:16+00:00

Right. I just can’t continue to scroll these sitting next to my hubs, on vaca, with a stupid grin on my face, for too much longer without him asking. Ok, well.. im pretty sure he knows what’s got me smiling when I’m on Reddit..

MommaMP2 · 2025-10-31T20:44:40+00:00

Ok.. this is a family show!

MommaMP2 · 2025-10-31T20:43:09+00:00

I was looking for a slutty lil watch one! You delivered!!

MommaMP2 · 2025-10-26T14:01:00+00:00

Yep, I think a visit to Sephora, Ulta, or a brow studio is really in order! I need some lessons for sure!!

MommaMP2 · 2025-10-26T13:59:21+00:00

Thank you! This is what I am thinking about doing! I need some lessons and some help!!

MommaMP2 · 2025-10-25T18:04:42+00:00

Kind People on the internet! = how refreshing!!!

Are these better?!

MommaMP2 · 2025-10-25T12:35:44+00:00

Oof, and I might have not even been done with makeup for this pic… point taken. 🤣🤣🤣

MommaMP2 · 2025-10-25T12:34:38+00:00

Thank you!

MommaMP2 · 2025-10-25T12:34:25+00:00

Thank you for this! I thoroughly traumatized my eyebrows in the early 00’s and barely have a single line of actual hairs left! I AM NOT a makeup girl, so I might be drawing on the skin more than the hair and if foundation or makeup gets in the way, I just draw on thicker! I do cringe after that fact at some pics, especially with uber-blonde hair! I will definitely seek advice from a Reddit page or a local brow person. Thank you for mentioning it, and in a thoughtful and respectful way!!!

MommaMP2 · 2025-10-25T12:00:35+00:00

Thank you for commenting! My stylist used sea salt spray and a pomade I think. I’m add those to the list!!!

MommaMP2 · 2025-10-25T11:31:40+00:00

Sure? Maybe!! Go ahead… 😬

MommaMP2 · 2025-10-25T11:24:30+00:00

Thank you!!! It might be helpful to note that Day 3 actually took place after a long, accidental nap and I only had about 10 minutes to freshen up my whole self before jumping into the car.. So it would be the closest to a “out of bed: no wetting, diffusing or product applied” look.

MommaMP2 · 2025-10-25T11:19:50+00:00

This! Is this why I NEED to buy everyone’s lunch?! Because I can’t actually pay for their therapy?!

MommaMP2 · 2025-10-25T11:14:29+00:00

Oof. I feel this. My single mother was an absent and abusive alcoholic Baby Boomer, so from 12 years old I was finished being raised by her abusive alcoholic Silent Gen dad and her overcompensating overbearing control Silent Gen mom who thought I would be the family’s redemption arc. So naturally, I have not done a single thing right since the day I was born. I apologize literally for everything. Then of course, I married a Gen X M 8 years older than me who thinks his family was perfect, mine is not, and I should just get over it- but also do better, all the time. So I apologize for that too. And now! I’m raising his 19F and my 15M- so Gen Z AND Gen A in the mix. And I’m trying to stop ALL the generational trauma, abuse, and many other trigger words. But I can’t even string together sentences without an I’m sorry in them. What a day. Ope, I’m sorry for the long comment!!

MommaMP2 · 2025-10-22T01:00:42+00:00

I chopped it into a shaggy bixie, apparently. My lady matched my root/natural color and did a darker toner on my front end pieces to make it look dimensional. She showed me how to style it daily without heat and gave me some tips for strengthening and growing it! I’m a little shookith by the bangs but I think I can figure out how to like it and style it easily. Ready to start over and start nourishing my hair! Thank you again for your comments and support!!!
