Hey Thriftanistas!
I know the blog has been all over the place but honestly it reflects my life at the moment. In so many words I have been all over the place. In the past few months I have gained 20 pounds, lost my edges around the front perimeter of my head and I am unable to fit anything in my closet!
I guess the saying is true…”when it rains it pours.” A few years ago I wouldn’t have discussed my problems so openly. In fact, I probably would have exercised in private and not been photographed until I was looking my best but you know what you live and you learn. But guess what? Life happens. It has taken me a while to reach this point but I have learned to love my myself unconditionally. I know it’s hard this day and age with social media constantly allowing you to compare yourself to others.
For the next few weeks I will be documenting my journey right here on the blog as well as snapchat (thriftinghuntsv). And guess what – I am going to thrift myself at every stage of my weight loss! That’s the great thing about thrifting it accommodates everyone! Be sure to join me every Thursday as I update my edge growth and weight loss journey! Until next week….
Love this.! I can’t wait to see where your unconditional self love takes you.

Hey!! Got a question for you? Have you had your thyroid checked? Weight gain and hair loss are two good indicators of thyroid malfunction. I have thyroid problems so I read about it all the time.

Hey Ashley!
Thank you so much for reading and responding. I did consult with my physician and I’m healthy as an ox. However, I deployed last year and a few of the other girls are experiencing the same problem. It may have to due with the water/medicine we were taking for a full year 😔 With the weight gain…I have been eating too much and it’s time to cut back!
