I Haven’t Been Looking. That’s Changing in June.
I’m tracking everything I eat for 30 days and I want you to do it with me.

I’ve been stuck.
Not in a dramatic way. Not in a “my medication stopped working” way. Just... quietly stuck. The kind of stuck where the scale isn’t really moving and you’re not really sure why and honestly you haven’t wanted to look too closely because looking feels scary.
I’ve been on this medication for three years. I’ve lost over 75 pounds. And somewhere along the way I stopped paying attention to what I was actually eating.
Not on purpose. Life just got loud and I got comfortable and somewhere between busy mornings and late nights I lost the thread.
I’m not beating myself up about it. But I am done pretending it isn’t happening.
So here’s what I’m doing.
Starting June 1st I’m tracking everything I eat. The whole month. Every single day.
I’m not using a specific app. I’m not weighing my food. I’m not measuring anything. I’m just logging what I eat, using ChatGPT to estimate calories, and actually looking at what’s on my plate.
You can do this however works for you. MyFitnessPal. Lose It. Weight Watchers. A notes app. A journal. A napkin. Whatever gets you to actually write it down.
There are no rules here. The only goal is to stop guessing and start seeing.
Why now.
Because I’m tired of the quiet stuck feeling.
Because I think I already know what I’ll find when I start looking and I need to actually see it to do something about it.
Because three years in I still have things to learn about how I eat and how this medication works in my real daily life. Not in a perfect week. Not on a good month. In the actual messy middle of it.
And because I learn better when I’m not doing it alone.
Here’s how it works.
Every day in June I’ll drop my food log in the Chat inside the Bestiies Fam chat here on substack. You drop yours. We’re not competing. We’re not comparing. We’re just a group of people finally looking at their lives instead of guessing at them.
No rules. No perfect eating required. Just show up and log it.
Use whatever app or method works for you. The point is to look, not to be perfect at looking.
Want in?
June 1st. One month. Just track it. $3 per month.
You also get access to all of my paid posts, and deep dives. Find them here.
&& Back to Day one.
I have to track. Because if I don't I find myself taking a bite here if there ir thinking I had enough protein. Keeps me accountable.
I will definitely be joining! I honestly track my protein , electrolytes and water almost every day! I come from the ketogenic diet so I was tracking every single thing! Being on a Glp1 has given my mind some freedom around food but I track protein and water/electrolytes cause I’m so fearful of loosing muscle! I love this idea it puts things in perspective and will help see where you are at with food choices! We’ve got this! Let’s do it
