February & March were particularly difficult months. Then, the body-shaming comments began. Instead of cowering or becoming despairing, I decided to take positive action. On April 4th, I began my journey at 217.1 pounds. Today, I weigh 189.2. In 2 & 1/2 months, I’ve lost 27 pounds. (Also, I...

Today I’ve been doing a lot of thinking, and this is from my heart. Thank you Dad for being a wonderful father. Thank you Mom for being truly the best mother! I love you Jessica. It was a blast growing up with you. I wish I could see you all more. Thank you to all my family; aunts and uncles on my father’s side and my mother’s side. Thank you to Adalis for the 17 best years of my life. Thank you Camila for making life exponentially more enjoyable. Thank you to all the pastors who opened their platforms to me at 19,20,21,22. Guys that probably think I forgot about them like Dr. Samuel Bombara, Doug Sayers, and David Sanville. Thank you for helping me get started. Thank you to every pastor who opened their church to me to preach in the last 21 years. I’m filled with gratitude for your kindness. Thank you to Dr. Rodney Howard Browne. My life took an upward turn when I met you. You have been a true, caring friend and mentor. Thank you to our Revival Today family. You’ve never wavered in working to reach the lost. Thank you to our Revival Today Church family in Pittsburgh and now Fort Worth. You hold a dear place in my heart! Thank you to everyone who threatened to kill me for not actually killing me. We all have bad days. But mostly, I want to thank whoever is reading this. You have likely baked me something, encouraged me, or shown me kindness in some way. I hope you know how much I appreciate you. You send me ice cream. You send things you’ve made that express your love, and many times there’s no name attached, so I have no way to thank you. So thank you. You warm my heart. Thanks for caring about me and what I do. Thanks for treating me like your own brother or son. At the risk of sounding creepy, I wish I could hug you today. In 43 years I’ve had very few negative encounters with anyone. People have been so nice to me for no reason. Thank you. But most of all, I don’t know if you read Instagram or not, but thank you Jesus. You saved me. You called me. And then you took me all over the world. I have had so much fun telling people about you and your Word. You’ve kept me extremely healthy and so full of joy. Thank you for 43 years of life. I owe you everything.

I feel weird even bringing this up, but here we go. Subscriptions are open on my page. There is no graceful way to say that, so please take this with a kind heart. I know a lot of people are struggling financially, and I don’t want anyone stretching themselves for me. I have a great job. I’m just letting people know it exists because some of you asked. I’m not even saying I’m worth the money. I’ll be honest, I’m not the best person to subscribe to. I’m not an OnlyFans girl, I’m not teaching you how to get monetized, I’m not running a masterclass in anything. The subscriber section is literally just more personal, everyday stuff. It’s boring in a comforting way. You’re not missing anything. If you ever feel like hanging out with me on the quieter side of this app, it’s there. If not, all good. I just wanted to put it out there for anyone who might be interested. Pro tip: if you subscribe to anyone, please do it on a browser. If you do it through the Apple Store or the Google store, they take 30% and put it in their pocket. Those companies are rich enough. I have a real problem with them getting any money or subscribers. I didn’t know that when I first started subscribing to people. PS: if you are a current subscriber or a new subscriber, please go to my homepage and click on the subs tab. I post content there, but it doesn’t automatically show up in your feed. PPS: Please don’t be nasty to me in the comments if you don’t want to subscribe. I’m not a mean person. I can’t think of a humble way to tell people. This wasn’t easy for me to write.

T/W: suicide, eating disorders I’m self-conscious about how I look. I get criticism on every move I make both publicly and privately. Every time I take an action I hear the potential criticism in my head… but I do it anyway. The criticism does always come. I get criticism on my body too. I can love myself at any size, but the never ending pressure to please everyone and to try to be so strong people can’t criticize me is tiring. Sometimes I wonder if my problems are really my own. When I’m alone, I only have love for myself without an ounce of shame or self-hatred. I like myself and who I see in the mirror. But hate and criticism can eat away at you. “Are they right?” “Should I really be eating that?” “People will judge me.” I’ve never recognized a negative voice in my mind as mine. I can’t think of one person who would say I’m the negative voice in their head either. But the negative voice in my head has left me suicidal before. I don’t hate myself. But sometimes people treat me like they hate me. It’s hard not to internalize it. Today, I want to remind you- you don’t have to hate yourself even when the world treats you like they hate you. It’s safe to make mistakes. It’s safe to love yourself and your body even when others laugh at you. Every time I get a message about how someone loves their body a little more after reading my messages, it reminds me why I keep opening my heart. It’s hope. We all need hope. I hope you choose to appreciate your body today ✨ it and you are beautiful

🚨 JUST IN: Mitch McConnell’s office has released a statement and PHOTO of the Senator sitting in his hospital bed confirming he will NOT be on the Senate floor anytime soon Hey McConnell: you do not OWN that Senate seat. If you can’t do your job, RESIGN. Kentuckians deserve their representation. And you’re not representing them. I’m sorry you’re in bad shape, but Kentuckians should not be burdened by your inability to do the job you were elected to do. — FULL STATEMENT FROM McCONNELL’S OFFICE: “To my fellow Kentuckians – When you elected me to a seventh term and made me our Commonwealth’s longest serving Senator, you did so trusting that I’d keep showing up to fight for you every day. And over the past several weeks, Elaine and I have appreciated both your well wishes and your honest questions about what was keeping me away from the Senate. You all know how folks of my generation often hesitate to share the vulnerability that comes with growing older. Even in the public eye, I feel that same instinct – I can’t help it. But at the same time, I’ve had more than my share of experience with physical vulnerabilities. Surviving childhood polio meant spending my entire life with mobility challenges. They haven’t exactly gotten easier to manage with age. And last month, I took a fall which landed me in the hospital. My doctors have confirmed that I didn’t break any bones or suffer a concussion. I didn’t have a heart attack or a stroke. I don’t have any tumors or hemorrhages. But I was briefly unconscious and was taken to the hospital. While receiving excellent care over the past several weeks, I’ve also had to deal with a mild case of pneumonia. I can assure you that I’ve been a good patient. At my age, I tend to do what my doctors tell me to do. I’ve submitted to every test they can think of to help figure out what caused this incident. And I’m continuing to do everything they ask to speed my recovery. In fact, with signs of continued progress, I’ve been able to move from hospital care to a rehabilitation center where I’ll keep regaining my strength. As much as it frustrates me, this process takes time. And on the advice of my doctors, I won’t be able to return to the Senate floor to vote quite yet. But rest assured that, in the meantime, I’m not taking a break from the Senate business that matters to you. I’ve been working closely with my legislative staff on current issues, and with my Kentucky team who help me provide timely constituent services across our Commonwealth. I’ve also been keeping in touch with my Senate colleagues on the appropriations process, midterm politics, and everything in between. You’re right to expect your representatives to work hard for you. And part of my decision to retire at the end of my term this coming January was being honest about the demands of Senate work. But I still have unfinished business to complete on your behalf, and I have every intention of finishing the job you elected me to do. I’ll keep working hard to get back on the Senate floor as soon as possible. And I’ll keep you posted on the progress of my recovery. Until then, I’m so grateful for your prayers and well wishes.

After a lot of consideration of all my options I am thrilled to announce I am committed to Stetson University!!! Since I was a little girl I’ve always dreamed of playing D1 basketball. It has been a challenging journey filled with many ups and downs. But I never lost sight of that dream. As I reflect on my commitment, I cannot help but think of the people that helped me reach this point. To my coaches, thank you for your guidance and mentorship. You pushed me to become a better player and leader. To my teammates, your the backbone of my success. We’ve created memories and lessons that we will carry with us forever. Thank you for your support, encouragement and pushing me everyday to get better. To my trainers and athletic trainers, thank you for helping me with any obstacle that comes my way. You’ve helped me become physically and mentally stronger. Your dedication to me has been a huge part of my success. To my family, thank you for your unconditional love and support. Your encouragement has been my drive to become a better person on and off the court. As I step onto the court as a Hatter, I will always remember the journey and the people it took to get me there. I am confident that I will reach my full potential and contribute to the teams success. Thank you for believing in me and offering me this amazing opportunity!!!

Perrie admits she’s “frustrated” by how Jesy Nelson has portrayed the breakdown of her relationship with Little Mix, adding that she feels the group consistently tried supporting Jesy at the cost of their own mental health, and that accountability should be taken on all sides: “Sometimes you just won’t win with people. And what annoys me the most… I have to be careful how I say this because I don’t want to seem like a bitch… But what upsets me the most when situations like this happen is when the other person doesn’t take any accountability. That boils my blood. I’m not blaming everything on you [Jesy]. I’m not saying, ‘She’s this fucking monster and everything was her fault’ and blah blah blah. But take some accountability for your actions and realise you were difficult. You did have difficult moments. Granted, there were reasons for those moments... but you can only pick somebody up so many fucking times before you start losing track of your own sanity. You want to be there for that person, but if they can’t accept the help and they can’t accept the love you’re trying to show, how do you win? You can’t. I hate that. I don’t like putting the blame on people. Don’t put the blame on me and make me out to be something that I’m not. Yes, I’m not perfect. I might not have been there enough, or I could have done better I suppose… but I thought what I was doing was enough. I thought I’d tried everything. So to then sit there in further interviews and discuss it publicly and be like, ‘I wasn’t supported’… You were, though. You were. So just take some accountability and I’ll feel better about it. I’d say [I’m] more frustrated than angry, because I don’t like being painted into a person that I’m not. Because I’m an open book, I have to be real. It exhausts me when I see people that I know inside and out not being genuine. It frustrates me.”
