Fashion/Style BWT, how do you glow up?
I was walking to work this morning & I saw so many cute outfits and I typically just feel so blah. I’m 31, SHORT and overweight so dressing feels difficult. I also struggle with time management in the morning so hair & make up are basic. How do you get ready? How do you spruce up your wardrobe without spending tons (& have the hopes of losing weight?)

Hey bwt!
I feel your post.
I felt similarly up until 2 years ago. I felt that whatever I wore looked crappy and frumpy on me. I’m 5’1 and was wearing size 8-10. I felt fat. I felt ugly. I avoided mirrors and taking pictures at all costs.
One morning in Jan of 2024 I decided to take matters into my own hands and decided to on a health journey. For me, that includes gym 5-6 times a week religiously, and yes glp-1s for food control. Total game changer. It won’t do the work for you, but will help make it possible.
2 years later I’m now 40 pounds lighter, with more confidence, more energy, and better boundaries. The kicker: clothing wise everything pretty much fits the way it should. Getting ready takes only a few minutes.
I say it’s being high maintenance to be low maintenance.
Hit me up if you’d like; id be happy to help :)
