I've been petite my entire life. I'm 29 years old, 5'1, and the last time I weighed myself, I was 92 lbs. The most I've ever been (besides pregnancy, of course) was 97 lbs.

The only bread I eat is my sourdough, and I mostly enjoy Mexican meals and once in a while outside foods. Today, I weighed myself, and I was 103 lbs!!! It's such an accomplishment because I've struggled to gain weight my entire life. I also have hypothyroidism, but I don't take my pills for it. On top of that, I'm a breastfeeding mom of two (2 years and 4 years old), and the only thing I've done differently is introducing sourdough to my life since late January.

Sourdough has so many benefits! Its fermentation process breaks down gluten and phytic acid, making it easier to digest and helping my body absorb nutrients more efficiently. It's also a great source of energy and supports gut health, which can be especially helpful when managing thyroid issues.

So, thank you, Rosementina (my starters name), for helping me reach this milestone! ❤️
