Title: Celebrating an achievement... With a very special pony!
Post by: Luxrayx on March 18, 2021, 01:50:15 PM: I'll try to keep this short. Basically, I've been overweight/obese pretty much my entire life, and towards the end of 2019, I decided it's finally time to do something about it. Using a very fancy diet I call "eating the same stuff as always, but like, less of it", I've lost 30kg, 30% of my starting weight, and now officially have a normal BMI! Actually, turns out I underestimated my height a little bit, so I already crossed that threshold back in January. Whoops! :lol:

Anyway, I wanted to treat myself for the occasion, but like... not with food? So I decided to go to the toy store and make a good old-fashioned impulse purchase, free of any notion of matureness and money-saving and what have you. Although the pony aisle was disappointing. I mean, the new G4s (the ones that are just regular G4s with poses), are soo cute in person! ...But they only had the Mane 6. I was starting to think I'd have to settle for a pack of Pokemon cards or leave empty-handed, when I saw her. The meme, the legend, someone I thought existed only on Tumblr and in shady Taobao listings.

It's concerned pony! And with good reason to look so concerned, sitting all by herself in the misc. off-brand section by the exit, poor thing. Aw, you needn't worry anymore, concerned pony... But wait! That's not a proper name, is it? What should I name her? :wonder: And sorry if this brag post comes off as a bit too braggy, but I'd be lying if I said I'm not proud of what I've accomplished. Thanks for looking :D
