40 + Weight Down Nearly 7 Lo 😨

Not just because of reducing puppets... but because of stress.

Mother has not yet failed.

Trouble relatives never showed up asking for inheritance.

Another person came to borrow money. Once asked... quietly.

I've been eating less lately, trying to find a new menu.

Little sleep at night. Some sleep.

I realized it again. Very thin. I was shocked when I weighed it.

Optimistic thinking is shapely, but it also comes with poor mental health. 🙂 ↕️
