Hi, I'm Kristyn. Welcome to Fork and Mood. I'm so happy you're here! This blog is going to be a place for me to talk all about the ups and downs of my weight loss journey and mental health. Maybe I'm crazy, but I never truly realized how much those two things affect one another until I started trying to build better habits. Some days are good, some days are... not as good, but I spend every day working to be my best self.
A little bit about me. I'm in my late 40s (so not a youngin'!), my starting weight was 323.6 lbs, and I started my weight loss journey the first week of October 2025. As of writing this, I've lost 64 lbs (in 6 months!). This is not, by far, my first attempt to save myself, but it is certainly going to be my last because I'm crushing it! Not every day, but most days, and that's how progress happens. I'm a manic depressive with some pretty severe anxiety, so my brain makes my life harder than it needs to be. I'm also a gamer (tabletop RPG and MMORPGs), an avid reader, and a writer. I enjoy spending time outside, laying in my hammock for a nap, and spending long lazy afternoons with my husband of 26 years.
I'm absolutely ready to share all my ups and downs, so let's get thing thing rolling!
