Hi. I'm Tony, he/him/they/them, currently on a weight loss journey (down over 140 lbs but currently on a plateau the past few weeks.)

Deleted my mostly unused Twitter but I'm still hanging around @tpots_journey on Insta & Threads documenting my #wls journey daily.
Signposts up ahead:

288 lbs - 200 lbs down
280 lbs - BMI of 35
270 lbs - next weight "goal"
244 lbs - lost half my weight
240 lbs - BMI of 30
220 lbs - Surgeon's goal

Considering I'm under 300 for the first time since my teens, anything beyond this point is just winning more!

Finally broached the 300 lb barrier for the first time since my teens.

So pleased!!!

If you have this on your social media page, and it reflects your (Christian) views, kindly block me and fuck off.

I mentioned I was now under my marriage weight. So I've got a pic of me at my wedding, a pic of me at my heaviest, and the photo from me yesterday. I was at 305 this morning, and was 320 at my wedding. I was 488 at my largest. And I'm so close to my #RoadTo299

It’s been a while since I’ve seen a “2” in that position. Not since immediately after my surgery, sometime last July.

Still on that #RoadTo325 on my weight loss journey!

I got up early this morning. And it would have been so easy to go and get a breakfast taco. But I was good, and am eating my Protein yogurt for breakfast. Because I’ve lost 150 lbs so far, and still have 100+ to go. #wls #wlscommunity #duodenalswitch #duodenalswitchcommunity #RoadTo325

Toes untouch the overpass
soon he’s water-bound.
Eyes locked shut but peek to see
the view from halfway down.

There's a lot of talk about the villainy of insurance companies. It's important to remember that it's not just insurance, but pharmaceutical companies that would also eat the sick if they could.

I set up my advent calendar/conversation piece at work. And yes, it is a Christmas movie!

Had a dream about a former student, one I used to talk to quite a bit. So I reached out to them. And they blocked me within an hour.

This is what five months after Bariatric Surgery looks like #wls #wlscommunity

#NSV my belt now has as many holes made by me as it did when I bought it!
