martina is losing it #21
I checked and the last time I posted
February wasn’t a terrible month. It could have been
Needless to say, I don’t have many NSV’s this time, which I know I always say, but it’s for real this go around.
I’ve been online shopping for a few weeks now and can’t find anything. I feel like it might be time to try to find things in the straight sizes, which is fun and exciting, but I don’t know if I’m really there yet. Sure, I bought a few XXL tee shirts from Old Navy around Christmas, but I’ve heard they run kind of big. I’m not diminishing my loss, I’m just saying they’ll work better than say an XXL from Macy’s, maybe. I haven’t had a chance to go brick and mortar shopping so I have no idea what will work from where anymore. Time for some dressing room experiments!
This is a problem that I didn’t anticipate and I don’t know how to deal with it. My face has… deflated. I would (dramatically) say that it is a little flabby. Not in a “
It’s a known fact that men lose weight faster than women. My friends, I have figured out how. They don’t have a crazy Aunt Flo.

The bloating, the uncertainty of when she’s going to show (for me, anyway. she’s been coming earlier and earlier) I’m not saying that men don’t emotionally eat or eat from boredom or get cravings, but, they don’t bloat, they don’t swell in the abdomen, their whole body doesn’t wage a war with them once a month – for no other reason except that they didn’t get themselves pregnant. MUST BE NICE. That’s probably not the only reason why they lose weight faster and easier than women, but I would bet that if I asked a medical professional, they would confirm that’s a big and valid reason. Because I’m a GD genius.
And that’s it, friends. I wanted to get this up before Thursweigh, which is coming in fast and hot. I’ve upped my water at lunch to a 33.8oz bottle of Poland Spring and I’m definitely feeling it.
Sorry for the lack of GIFs and other pictures in this post. Maybe in next month’s update! (I’ll try not to wait that long. Maybe the time change this weekend will help. Probably not, but maybe.)
Love you, mean it.
