Hello! I’m a 57 year old grandmother of four and mother of two. I also love animals and nature. I am currently in process of losing weight. Since 2012, I’ve lost almost 200 pounds. I’ve been working on getting g healthy and taking walks. I’m pretty quiet and shy.
Rainy day in East TN. Didn’t walk as far as I would have liked but most importantly, the walk was without my walker.

♿Social Security is NOT just for Seniors. It's also for people like me with Disabilities, people who receive Survivors Benefits & Veterans who receive Social Security benefits.
Before I became disabled, I PAID into the program with EVERY paycheck. There are MILLIONS more like me & it is OUR MONEY!♿

If you live in TN and you have called representatives chick fleismann be prepared for rude staffer. Called yesterday and calling today after his vote of yes. I am interrupted by staffer saying that the bill doesn’t cut Medicaid. I respectfully disagreed with him. He needs to go!!

I am so damn angry at TN representative Chuck Fleischmann. He doesn’t have a decent bone in his body! I’m sure that TN senators Hagerty and Blackburn will be the same way. Countless emails and calls and they don’t freaking care!! They all need to go. Get some real people in to listen to us!

I think ALL the republicans that have voted to cut Medicaid and the ones that will vote have large enough houses that the elderly living in nursing homes can go live with them.

🚨If YOU live in 1 of these REPUBLICAN districts, these are the MOST vulnerable R's whose seats will be FLIPPED next year if they vote YES to cut Medicaid.
Please CALL your representative the vote is TODAY & help SAVE MEDICAID. YOUR voice does matter and does make a DIFFERENCE. 202-224-3121.🚨

My question for those who are more experienced at politics than I am. WHERE are all of elected officials that swore to uphold the constitution?? And what does felon 47 have over their heads that they can just bend at his will, wants and desires. Nothing he has done helps us or the world.

So NONE of our state senators from the red states have any backbone or balls? Do they even listen or read when we send emails or call and leave voice messages? At least one of TN senators responded to an email, even though it was automated. The other one, no response and no chance for voicemail

This is what a forest looks like when you look through infrared light. This is why you feel so good after going in the woods. You may not see this, but your body can FEEL it! This is healing nature.

After losing over 115 pounds I participated in my first 5k Thanksgiving morning. I didn’t expect to place, which I didn’t. But I still won! I FINISHED!!

I’m so excited, and scared! Just signed up and registered for my FIRST 5k on Thanksgiving morning!! I will not be running in it only walking. By the time I am done I’ll have a new reason to be thankful to be alive 😂

Here’s a little bit about my weight loss journey that started in 2012. I had gastric sleeve surgery December 31, 2012. I lost weight over the years but was having so much difficulty losing. Since summer 2023 I’ve been on mounjaro and still losing however, again still slow. I have about 60 lbs to go.
