Scale
Jul 18, 2025
Getting on a scale when you know you ate like crap the day before is hard. That's when you want to stop and fall off and avoid or change a commitment that you made to yourself. A daily lifestyle change , weigh myself daily. Just one time everyday in the morning when I wake up and before I eat. It's my new routine. It's exciting when you know you killed it in the gym and you ate right. It's terrifying when you know you fu'd up and you didnt put in the work. Yesterday was my daughter's birthday. We went out to eat, I drank way to much coffee and I ate sweets. Now I got to see where my starting point is today. Getting on the scale is a reminder of where I'm at and where I'm trying to get too. I heard someone say don't worry about the number...my response.."stop gas lighting me"..Imma do me and you do you.

Keep showing up

Know your purpose and know that you are built for this. I am willing to walk into the callign of life- even when it feels uncomfortable and continue to know there is more and refuse to settle and just blend in.

Life changes are experiences that are a natural occurrence .. Starting over again is challenging and very human natural experience . Ive gained and lost and gained and lost ..it's just life happening. Starting over is my chance to get the life I want and deserve.
Where your focus goes your energy flows

Changing my body starts with my thoughts , they way that I talk to myself, they way I see myself in the mirror. Get control of the inner voice and the consious mind and show up and do the good that you were ment to do. Just keep moving forward

Today’s Poem.. to shift and transform
Jun 21, 2025
Man in the Mirror aka The Guy in the Glass aka Me looking at Me
When you get all you want and you struggle for self,
and the world makes you king for a day,
then go to the mirror and look at yourself
and see what that man has to say.
For it isn't your mother, your father or wife
whose judgment upon you must pass,
but the man, whose verdict counts most in your life
is the one staring back from the glass.
He's the fellow to please,
never mind all the rest.
For he's with you right to the end,
and you've passed your most difficult test
if the man in the glass is your friend.
You may be like Jack Horner and "chisel" a plum,
And think you're a wonderful guy,
But the man in the glass says you're only a bum
If you can't look him straight in the eye.
You can fool the whole world,
down the highway of years,
and take pats on the back as you pass.
But your final reward will be heartache and tears
if you've cheated the man in the glass.
....I want to look at myself and be proud of my weight loss..Im being a straight shooter today lets be real. I want to loose weight ..its about weight loss, it always has been all my life reallly and it always will be..I give myself Love, Grace & Compassion, Im focusing on looking at myself in the eye and smile....

What keeps me motivated
Jun 07, 2025
- Reading my old post
- Vlogging my thoughts
- reading other people post
- watching you tube videos of people who are loosing weight
- My kids and my family
This is not an over night fix, its a life long journey with ups and downs. I would like to be one of those people that count calories and meal prep and are super duper discipline.I'm not . I've tried , meaning I bout the containers and the weight scale and the apps. I just never really used it.
Do's and Dont's
- Don't eat at Night
- Don't turn into a cow and graze all day ( thats what put my weight back on)
- Don't over indulge in breads and chips ( these things don't make me sick so I have to limit the intake)
- Do the gym daily and drink lots of water
- Do take your vitamins
- Do weigh yourself Daily ( and use the app to look back at your progress)
- Do motivate your daughter just by your actions ( I love my child )
- Do listen to positive affirmations and remember your why ( for myself and my children)

Hitting the Gym
May 15, 2025
Ive had great support in going to the gym daily. My support is helping me stay consisitent. Last night I orderd door dash for the family ;) yep. I purchased a veggie burger and my family had burgers, onion rings and fries. I made a consious choice not to indulge in the fried foods. I stuck to the veggie burger and I was satisfied. Eventhough fried food makes me sick, I still eat them and sufer the consiquences later ( the food noises dont stop). This go around I said to myself NOT TODAY ( The building will not be on fire!.. viral joke*)...
