Bulking Journey: Month 8 | Large, but in charge | Living up my Power Era ⚡️💪🏻
I’ve made it EIGHT WHOLE MONTHS!! I can’t believe I’ve come this far 😭 I mean, I knew I would - I was dead set and committed to this journey. But I had so much anxiety and worry about gaining all this weight in pursuit of my health / physique / fitness goals. Especially at this age. (I won’t lie, it still worries me lol. Stay tuned to see if I can cut the fat in a few months!)
But now that I’m in this spot, body image doesn’t affect me much anymore. I’m pretty used to being this size and all the enormous power I’m producing at the gym offsets the discomfort. I’m living in my Power Era and soaking up every last second, because in 12 short weeks I’ll be hungry and struggling to maintain strength and stamina in the gym and will miss these days where I could fuel to perform, not offload to dial back the body fat.
Come with me in this final stretch as I muscle my way to the finish line of this crazy adventure!

Another month at the circus in the books! 🤡 Speaking of memory problems lol, i FORGOT to talk about the cycle changes I’ve been experiencing! So here they are: super short cycles now. Only 21-22 days. Super short luteal phase - only 11-12 days now.

I’m so extremely sorry for your loss and mental anguish.😂 As a mom who have a child with Autism and all that challenge entails being non-verbal, developmentally detailed, experiencing Sensory issues etc… I have certainly had my down moments. I mean really hit rock bottom in my mental state. Temporary depression due especially to our son’s situation or other milder issues in life. However, as I prayed to the God of heaven and reflected upon His Word, He has again and agin bought me out. In addition, to having experienced a miscarriage as well back in Dec. 11,:2021. That date is doubly sad as that’s my Mother’s and one of my Niece’s birthday. However, I asked the Lord to heal me quickly and He did. “He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them.” (Psalm 107:20)❤❤❤.

    Hi! I have been using fertility friend for years now but now have a new AppleWatch and I’m wanting to do the same- experiment with comparing my oral bbt with Apple watch temps. But trying to figure out how to set this up has been a nightmare. Right now, I have Apple Watch temps flowing in but I have somehow set it to where those are being used as my BBT (and I know they’re not totally accurate) but not sure how/ to be able to add my oral temp that I use a annual bbt thermometer for. Any guidance on how to set that up? Is it in Chart Duo?

    • @Expat_FitLife
      @Expat_FitLife 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, it’s done by using the chart duo feature! Okay so there are two ways to do this: the easiest would be to just continue to have your Apple Watch auto-import and then you can add your manual temps as a custom data field that you select for comparison in chart duo. The second option would be to turn off the feature that auto-imports your Watch temps by going to Settings -> Health App Settings -> and then turning off auto-import. Then go back into your daily data inputs and delete each of the Apple temps for this cycle and replace them with your manual readings (you’d only need to do this for the previous days in your cycle where auto-import was enabled). Then you’d need to input your apple temps as the custom data field and select that in Chart Duo. Do you know how to input custom data fields? Let me know if not and I can describe that too 🩵

    I just discovered your content because I was looking for a video about women's experiences tracking their cycle with the Apple Watch series 8. I clicked on your channel because I was curious to see whether or not you succeeded in conceiving. I am so sorry to hear that you lost your baby... I actually lost my own around the same time as you, for me it was my first child, I started spotting around the 8 week mark and I knew that something was very wrong. I got the news on the 10th of October 2023 and the process of passing all of the pregnancy tissue lasted about 3 weeks and I needed quite a bit of medical intervention (luckily I was able to avoid a D&C procedure though). Unfortunately, probably because of the shock or the pain, I did not think of collecting the remains of my baby and it still haunts me. I know the depths of despair you are going through, and I truly hope you will find happines again. For a long time I did not seek any help, but I did get in touch with a therapist last week and made an appointment for both myself and my husband. My heart breaks for for you when I hear you blaming yourself and that you feel guilty for "giving up"...💔 I just can't believe someone would actually tell you that you "gave up on your baby", it makes me so angry! People really fail to understand the toll a pregnancy loss (let alone multiple) takes on women and their partners. You are not giving up, you are being kind to yourself, allowing yourself to heal and grieve so you can live life to the fullest with the family you have built on earth. It's a decision that no one has any business criticising! 🙏Thank you so much for sharing, it takes guts to be this vulnerable and open about this experience. Greetings and prayers from Antwerp, Belgium
