I didn’t just lose 90 lbs — I rebuilt my entire life.
245 → 155, bariatric surgery, loose skin, body dysmorphia, plus a whole ER nurse career… every chapter taught me how to ask better questions, hold more compassion, & empower other women to do the same.

This community is truly my favorite glow-up. ✨

Drop any bariatric questions you have below — I’m filming videos this week. 💖

3 years post-op and yes… I eat more than most bariatric girlies.
My success? Choosing movement I don’t dread.
Hot yoga feels like therapy. Walking while I eat keeps my body + brain happy.
Do what’s sustainable, not what’s extreme. 🫶

Lazy girl bariatric hack unlocked 🤌🏼 the ‘One Stop Shop’

I froze 6 days of breakfast tacos + pre-bagged my vitamins & protein because sometimes the only way to stay consistent… is to make it impossible not to.

Healthy routines don’t need to be complicated — just doable. 💛

My codes if you wanna try what I use:
✨ bariatric vitamins: MARISSA20
✨ protein powder singles: RISS

Short list of favorite hot springs 😍
1. Tolantongo
2. Ponta Delgada
3. Strawberry Park

These thermal springs in Tolantongo have existed for millennia, and the Otomí people were the first to discover and utilize them for their healing properties.

The springs and land is still owned by the Ejido de San Cristóbal, a cooperative of local community members.

Easiest to book a day trip through Mexico City on experiences.

TW: partner loss

Our first date was magic. He asked what I missed most about Chicago and I told him, “bars with activities.” So he found this little wine bar with a bocce court in the middle of the city.

I walked in and he lit up. Those sage-green eyes sparkled right at me. He was the most gorgeous man I’d ever seen… and somehow became my very best friend.

We didn’t even end up playing bocce lol — we were too enamored with getting to know each other. 2 hours of wine, another 3 spent at dinner and it was us, every day forward.

I miss him every day.
Hold your people tight.
Keep talking about the ones you’ve lost.
Carry the good they brought into this world. 💛

4 times in Mexico City & these still hit

1. Biking taco tour (fave place is always Cariñito)
2. Lucha Libre (buy a mask off the street and have a shot before you go into the stadium)
3. Parque Mexico or parque espana (I once took a 3 hour nap in the dog park here 😂)
4. Tolantongo (one of my most favorite places on earth)
5. Home goods shopping (just walking down Calle Colima in feels so damn dreamy)

What other recs do you need? Bars, restaurants? Lmk

This trip was my turning point.

Three years ago I was in Tolantongo — warm waters, cactus-lined mountains, pure magic. I came home, saw the pics, & felt crushed by these shots.😭

Now, 90 lbs down & a whole new mindset later… I look at that same photo with pride. That was the girl who started it all. 🩵

Tomorrow’s a new day, perfect time to change it all.🦋

Daily reminder to stop putting yourself last.
I weighed 242 lbs for all of my adult life.
At 30, I chose VSG.
At 31, I lost 80 lbs.
At 33, I removed the loose skin that held me back.
Now? I’m stronger, healthier, and hotter than I ever imagined. 😜
You’re not too old. It’s not too late. Go for it. 💪🦋

& happy 6 month BODY-versary to me 🥲 you go girl ✨
