What made me get big this last time was life aligning honestly. I had spent the year prior trying to form myself into a thinner, perfect, inauthentic version of myself. I was on wegovy, getting expensive skin treatments and doing procedures to regrow my hair.

I hit my goal the same day I moved to a new city where I didn’t know anyone and got my own place after years of couch surfing and traveling. The moment I was finally alone with myself, in a body that was built solely for other people to like..

Fast forward a few months later, I was placed on an involuntary leave at work and I spiraled hard .. work was my whole life. Without that structure I didn’t know who I was. I dipped my toe back into gaining one week at a time, not really on purpose, but not stopping myself either.

Each week my leave was extended further, I continued gaining more and more. I didn’t plan on being out for 4 months. By the time I was cleared to go back to work I had gained over 120lbs and couldn’t fit in my uniform… or the bigger one I had ordered a month prior lol.. they fired me right after.
