Back in the day…Pt. 2

Growing up in Columbus, Ohio I’ve seen a lot of stores, places and things come and go. I know people older than me have seen many more comings and goings than people my age have. I just want to visually reflect on these places that we miss. No explanation should be needed as to why…

Living with mental illness…it’s normal…

What to know before you have weight loss surgery

Regardless of what anyone tells you…weight loss surgery is not an easy way out. It’s not cheating or any other negative thing someone may tell you. Don’t let that brainwash you into possibly looking into something that can not only change your life but also prolong your life. F#%$ what anyone else has to say,…

Why I got rid of my Apple Watch

I’ve had my Apple Watch for 4 years…now what? I know…GET RID OF THAT BISH! No need to upgrade, no need to try another “smartwatch,” it’s just time to move on. It’s time to start detaching myself from much of the technology that I’ve come accustomed to. It honestly feels like my life has been…

Dear Nick Bosa…I’m not mad at you…Just stand in your truth!

As much as I love my Buckeyes, I’m not naive to the fact that bullshit happens in and around the program as it does it all of the top colleges. This post isn’t specifically geared to the Ohio State athletic system, especially the football team which brings in the most money. If anything…that’s what I…

Dear Daniel Caesar…

You know what y’all…I’m seriously exhausted. I was going to mention this little coon in my upcoming podcast, but I decided to delete it along with a few other topics that I just didn’t have the energy for. So…I found this YouTube video that summarizes up perfectly how I feel about this situation regarding Daniel…

Two different America’s

We’re definitely living in two different America’s. I mean this country has always had so many identities over the years and you have to ask yourself…”Has anything really changed?”  There’s rich America and then there’s the rest of us. Surprisingly these two America’s have nothing to do with race to an extent. You can have…

Face it…Oprah is trash!

In the “People vs O.J. Simpson” Cuba Gooding Jr while portraying O.J. had one of the most real lines in a TV show ever! “I’m not black, I’m O.J.” The scary thing is, I’m sure that many black celebrities feel this way. One in particular that comes to mind and who I know definitely feels…

My grocery shopping method…

Grocery shopping goes along with this lifestyle change. It’s probably one of the most important parts of this journey. You have to eat. There’s nothing wrong with eating. Yes…you won’t be able to eat as much, but don’t let that fool you. You will still spend a coin. I’ve mentioned how I enjoy grocery shopping…

Why I’m leaving my bariatric program

As much as I hate doing it…I had to do it. And “it” is leaving my bariatric program. After a year and a half, post-op…they’re tripping; like REALLY tripping! I haven’t met with my surgeon in six months. The reason I bring that up is this past Tuesday I was supposed to meet with my surgeon…
