I just realized that I forgot to check in yesterday, so this is just a little recap of how Monday went, then later today I’ll update. Yesterday’s weight was 160.4 lbs, and I spent the day being very conscious about my choices…but I still had fun. I had a protein shake for breakfast, avocado/pico/tuna salad for lunch, and a BLT with okra chips for dinner. Delicious, and even though it was a little over my calorie limit for the day, since I went to Bikram in the afternoon all worked out just fine.

I woke up today at 159.6 lbs, and haven’t eaten anything or expended much energy since I woke up, so there’s not much else to say at the moment. Later!

I’m Nova

I have no “personal brand.” I’m not a girl boss, I’m not an influencer, and I don’t aspire to be powerful, inspiring, or rich. I probably can’t teach you anything, and there’s a good chance that there’s nothing at all of interest or use to you here. This is just where I come to talk about the random bits and pieces that make up my quiet life as a sober woman in her 40s. I’m engaged to the love of my life, have six (yes, SIX) indoor pets, and spend a lot of time gardening and hunting for thrift treasures. I also study classical voice (I’m a lyric coloratura soprano) and am deeply interested in all things spiritual and paranormal. Right now I’m trying to recover from career burnout and even out my personal energy, but my eventual goal is to become a medium and shamanic healer, using music to remind humans of the things that actually matter: connection, community, and loving all living things as though they were our own children. I may or may not talk about all of these things here (and sometimes all at once). Welcome!
