Extremely vulnerable post!! As of this morning, I am officially down 40 lbs since May 24th. I'm down 24 lbs in the last 6 weeks with the help of my personal trainer💪🏻 Clifton Joseph. Now to lose another 50lbs. I was pushing a 3xl and 267lbs when I went into for my surgery and I was just able to fit into these outfits which were XL. Best part about that is that they were too big and I had to send them back to get a large 😁 I try to remember to show myself some grace as I had no control over what was happening to my body but it gets really hard when I look in the mirror but each week it gets easier and easier. And it's all thanks to Clifton. If you are looking to lose some weight and get healthy Clifton is your guy. It's not easy but it's so worth it!! Cushing disease sucks!!

Despite always working out and eating right, I consistently gained weight. 😞 In March of 2024 I was 257 lbs and by my surgery in May I weighed 267 lbs. Doctors told me in March to stop lifting heavy weights as it was causing more harm than good. I have lost most of my muscle mass. I am slowly trying to get that back.

Here are some before pictures and some collages for reference if just how much I changed in such a short amount of time.

The progression of Cushing's over the years. It's crazy how it takes so long to diagnose this disease.
