Day 31 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Today was my anniversary! Fourteen years with my loving husband, so today was good overall. Still worked, so we will celebrate over the weekend

Day 30 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Second measurement day. Mother nature added some bloating, so measurements are a bit elevated until I go back to normal

Weight: 251.7
Waist: 46.16
Neck: 15.57

So, originally our plan for our #stream this Oct 17 was to do an #art stream…
However, Mouse’s tablet that is the only one she can use for streaming no longer draws— so we will be revamping some of our reward options and making a new plan! Hope to see you all there! #thankmas2026 #wishmas

Day 29 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Light homework day considering everything coming up. Did some research for my last paper for my 8-week class, because I got so burnt out last time after procrastinating

Day 28 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Extremely busy day yesterday, fell asleep the moment I got home. Each day is a day closer to getting my health concerns figured out, even if it feels like it's taking forever

Day 27 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Friday was busy and exhausting. A lot of moving around and not much energy left by the end of the day. Things with work and the end of my 8-week class keep me too busy to post consistently, but that should fix itself by the end of next week

Day 26 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Today was much better. Ankle still hurts so no walking today, but making healthy food choices to hopefully counter it a little. Other medical stuff being set up, like APAP and possibly Zepbound. This would greatly change my progress

Day 25 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Not a great Wednesday. Overall, a lot more downs than ups, but some important progress made for some of my specific goals for my health, so I wouldn't call it a complete loss. Some pain involved, but nothing rest won't fix

Day 24 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Feeling unwell today. Not being able to stick to my diet or even make preparations the counter the change in schedule has my stomach feeling awful. A lot of discomfort today, along with pretty foul weather

Day 23 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Missed yesterday's update because of renewed complications at work. This week is going to be exhausting and very disruptive to me in every aspect of life until it gets resolved. Very much not happy about it

Day 22 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Nice, slow day today, and a little rain! We don't see enough of it out here, so I was happy. Ready for another week of work

Day 21 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Had a much calmer day today, allowing me to hit what I needed without additional stress. Hopefully the surprises at work will be over once Monday comes around

Day 20 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Yesterday was so exhausting that I didn't have the energy to post. Pulled in many directions but still managed to get things done that needed to be done

Day 19 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Another emergency at work today. Stress was high and the struggle to maintain my good eating habits was present, but I managed to stick with it despite all the temptation to veer off track

Day 18 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Very stressful day at work, but knowing how I handled things makes me content with the results of the day. Tiring, but very rewarding

Day 17 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Back to normal today! Glad to be back on my routine. Everything went smoothly and even had some delightful surprises throughout the day. Ending the day on a good note, too

Day 16 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Another day of travel for work. Managed to stay on track with all my goals, though, and it's back to routine tomorrow

Day 15 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

First measurement day! Some interesting results that initially had me discouraged, but the changes tell a story.

Weight: 252.3
Waist: 46.97
Neck: 15.78

While my weight went up, my measurements went down. I have become denser

Day 14 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge 🧵

Much better today. Returned home and got back on track with renewed vigor. Very good sleep compared to the night before, feeling much more rested

Day 13 of #Thankmas2026 PMA Challenge

The sleep study was rough. The entire Friday was spent packing for, traveling to, and attending a concert, so no real updates other than hydrating for survival in a boiling city. I cannot wait for autumn to kick in here
