My thoughts on Koonye’s latest shenanigans…

This is going to be a quick post because I refuse to spend too much time on either of these idiots. So this past Thursday it appears that Koonye went down to the White House and shucked and jived for his life. He took pictures with the staff including Sarah “Lying Ass” Sanders and Mike…

Time to get healthy

Since I started my weight-loss journey, I’ve found not only a whole new way to eat, but an entirely new way to live. For years I’ve tried to eat healthy and for the most part I did good. Yet…there was still room for improvement. Now I’ve learned to not only eat healthy, but to keep…

Regrets after surgery

I get asked all of the time if I have any regrets about my surgery. Today, nine months later I absolutely have none. I’m loving the way everything is working and how I’m looking. It feels amazing to go shopping in the store and actually have options in sizes. I love being able to walk…

Disconnecting from social media

I decided around a month ago to start logging off of all social media at 8:00 pm; unless I’m contacted directly. And let me tell you…this has been the best decision that I’ve made in a long time. I use this as a time to pray, read, write, take a walk, workout and just wind…

My health journey…Part 3: Clinically depressed mixed with high anxiety?

I’m probably putting way too much of myself out here, but I’m truly doing this to help people out. I don’t put my business out in the atmosphere like that. Especially something like this. Most people wouldn’t, including myself before I went through all of this; don’t like to discuss mental health. That’s where the…

My Health Journey…Part 2: Unnecessary Process and Procedure

Let’s fast forward past the summer of 2016 and hit it right on to October of the same year. I decided to go ahead and have surgery even before meeting with my surgeon for the first time. I’m going to go ahead and have the part of my stomach removed that wasn’t functioning. My first…

My health journey…Part 1: Accepting the worst

Everyone who knows me will tell you that I’m an extremely private person; like VERY private…it’s ridiculous. It takes me a while to open up to my family and close friends about things going on in my life…if I even choose to. Trust issues! In saying that, I decided that I wanted to keep it all…

2017…The year of self-reflection

I sat back and realized that I personally went through a lot this year: physically, mentally, spiritually and emotionally. As much as I went through this year, I am so thankful because in the end I came out a much better person on every level. The end of the year is a time of self-reflection…
