I put on 30lbs after losing 55 last year.

I worked so hard from summer 24, then went on mounjaro start of 25 and ended up losing 55lbs (total) by May. Then, I had a horrific reaction to the MJ and had to come off (doctors orders). Then, my ibs came back in full force, the panic attacks, the agoraphobia started to creep back in and I wasn’t exercising. Then, my best friend of over a decade just ghosted me… again. We haven’t spoken since and I don’t want him back, but it was a heartbreak that sent me over the edge.

All this led to me eating, not tracking, not weighing, heavily binge drinking and obviously… gaining.

I’m not super beating myself up, and it wasn’t a total shock as I knew I’d gained weight, but it is disappointing how easy it was to gain it back.

Now I’m starting from scratch again. Wish me strength for 2026, just as I wish it for you all.
