Down 60lbs and finally finding myself again after having kids. The weight packed on with my first pregnancy, and would not come off. This gave me my confidence and life back.
I started in March 2024 and it took a little over a year to lose 60lbs. I have not worked out consistently or dieted, just drinking and eating less. I have found that I prefer healthier options and naturally reach for more protein.

I have been trying to sort out my BF time, and these loaves came out so good in my opinion!
I am curious what experienced bakers have to say about the crumb though.
One plain loaf, and one feta/rosemary/italian herb loaf.
200g starter
690g room temp water
1000g flour
24g salt
Mixed starter/water/flour/salt and sit for one hour.
2 sets stretch and folds, 2 sets coil and folds, all 30 min apart.
Covered with plastic cap and let sit for around 4.5 hours.
Pre shaped, 30 min bench rest, into floured bannetons.
Cold proofed for 15 hours, baked with lid on for 40 min at 450, then removed lid and baked for 20 min at 400.

My highest dose was 10mg of tirz, maintenance for me is 5mg every other week.
