It's a  new week and I have been an emotional roller coaster... entrepreneurship is hard. Even though I have created some work arounds ... I work by myself 99% of the time... always waiting on people to give me information...pay invoices and be accountable for the things they need to do.... it makes me want to eat... so what I have started doing is when I am feeling overwhelmed I get on the treadmill or call someone that has had surgery... I have 83 pounds and six months to go to get to my goal weight but that is way better than 125... sometimes just looking at the numbers make me feel better. So my question to you all is what do you do when you are feeling overwhelmed and want to eat? Sometimes just talking it out can help so let's talk!!! 

Goal for the week: Lose 3 lbs 

Current Weight: 273.0 lbs

Loss: 42 lbs

Hi guys been a few ...been running around working and trying to find new clients... I am officially out of the 280 club YEAHHH me and able to finally use the restroom. So I am getting back on track joined a 24 hour gym near my house so I can get more focused on my working out... what have you guys been up to?

Hey Hey Hey... I am Back... been super busy but having issues with using the bathroom... I have a doctors appointment tomorrow to talk to the doctor and see what is going on... still holding steady on current weight need to lose 3 lbs this week... I got a rowing machine this week so I will be adding in rowing to my exercise plan... have an event this weekend in Indy so I have to pack my bags... what have you guys been up to??? Any plans for this week... My goals this week is to get at least 30 mins in everyday.. What are your goals for the week?

So a little update only lost 2.8 pounds last week but I will take it. Now let's talk about my doctor's appt. So a little back story... my pcp retired and I got a new pcp about 4 months ago. My 1st meeting OMG I wanted to kick her a$$. Really mean but I have to be nice as she is still a doctor and knows what I need to do. SO I never told her that I wanted to go to Mexico to have surgery, but I did tell the NP... long story short Kaiser was taking to long to talk to me about what I wanted to do... so as you know I had the surgery in Mexico. SO fast forward to the appointment this was the 1st time I had seen the doctor since I first met her. Of course when she came in I was like Lord please don't let the lady try me today...lol. Anyway, after she saw that I had lost 13 pounds in two weeks her whole attitude changed. I told her what I did and she said I am so PROUD of you!!!... Man after seeing how others pcp treat them after having surgery in Mexico I was shocked but very happy!!! Anyway back to the goals for the week... need to do 35 mins of exercise everyday (already done for today) incorporating Lymphatic Drainage Massage into my routine starting today so trying to see how often I need to do that. Need to lose 3-5 pounds this week ... And the speaking engagement last week were the BOMB... new meetings with potential clients for this week, anyway have a great week everyone and remember you are trying to be the best YOU that you can be and your journey is going to be different than everyone's else! Smooches!!!

So another ounce is gone and I am no longer in the 50's(Barely) 49.9... I'll take it... so I have a doctors appointment today as well as need to get nails and hair done and fined an oufit to wear for tomorrow.. What are your wins today??? We have to celebrate small wins as they lead to larger wins... Have a wonderful day and weekend... Remember we must stay FOCUSED!!!

So I am down another pound heading to be out of the 280's this week... It's Extremely Happy about that... so today I am still going through...what I can eat and what I can't So I tried eating some oatmeal.... NASTYYYYYY... so I am going back to making me some egss...so far I can eat eggs...chicken and shrimp with no taste issues but it does take me a long time to eat the chicken... oh well just a little at a time right.. what are you guys up to today?

So for me my week starts on Sunday... my normal routine is to get up take a shower get dressed and schedule out my clients sm post for the day/week ...emails for the week and create website templates for review... watch TD Jakes Live at 11am and then lounge around with the family for the rest of the day... Well today I actually have a client meeting at noon hopefully I can get there connections straight... but it will be the last working thing I do... I am down to 282 even... that is 33 lbs total GONE... 15 since surgery... and this week I want to lose 3- 5 lbs again... so by Saturday I will be offlicially out of the 280's... I am looking forward to that... On a non surgical goal... my 3x and 2x clothes are loose... and I fit into some of my 1x clothes a LOT better... I am going to go through my clothes this week to see what I can get rid of... the good thing is I have a Goodwill in walking distance from my house so I can walk them right on down the street...lol... I am so looking forward to getting back into a size 12 but right now my goal is to get into my size 16 clothes and not looked stuffed into them... What are you guys plans for this week... I have 2 speaking engagements this week ... one online and one in person... need to get my hair and nails done before Saturday.... Hope you all have a great week ahead....and don't forget to stay focused!

So who els is looking at the BMI tracker like what da .... 31 lbs gone but BMI is still over 50... according to National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute and the CDC ... 

BMI Categories:
Underweight = <18.5
Normal weight = 18.5–24.9
Overweight = 25–29.9
Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater

So I did the math (basically put in my numbers..lol) and even at my goal weight of 170 I would still be considered Obese...when I put in 169 ... that is still considered overweight so according to their calculator I would have to be 140 lbs to be considered normal....hmmmm .... For now I am sticking to my goal weight and if I get down to their calculations then I will be good but I am going to stay focused on the tangibles for now ...clothes getting loose...ounces and lbs coming off...continuing to eat better and not getting sick... What are you guys doing this weekend? What Wins did you have this week? What are your goals for next week? I officially lost 5.6 lbs according to my scale so my goal for next week is to lose 3-5 lbs.... I wish you all to have a great weekend and remember to keep active!!!

So how was your holiday? Mine was cool I went and seen my mom to celebrate her 102 birthday went to a cookout... had one at my house for the kids and went to see the fireworks... I really couldn't eat much but I am happy about that as I am down 2 more lbs... 285 even... 30 lbs total that I am down...I have been trying to get this extra weight off for a while now... so glad that I made the decision to have the revision as I could get the weight to go anywhere... and I only have 1 more pound to go for this week!!! How are you guys doing? Have you set goals for yourself? How are they working out for you? Hope that you all are getting the weight off and let's make good decisions so that we can keep it off... I am a living testimony on how not doing the right thing can be bad for your weight loss journey. Happy Humpday everyone enjoy your day!

2 more ounces gone... and I am so happy to see them go too... I know people tell you to stay off the scale but the scale helps me to see what is going on... As long as I am going down I don't care if it is one ounce I see the weight leaving... when I first had my operation ... I went up...my doctore told me it is normal and it was mostly water and it would come off.... but I was upset cause that was not what I was exepecting and that is what started this getting on the scale everyday to see if the weight was coming off and now I like doing it... Its a help for me ... the reason for me to talk about this is I had to find my way of changing my life and so do you ... everyone's journey is different as we all are different people with our own mindsets so keep going the weight will come off ... Happy Monday everyone!
