Changing gears is what I seem to do best. I just can’t seem to get my shit together. I guess it’s because life is ever-evolving. Once I think I have one thing figured out, something else takes its place and the story repeats itself, over and over. That leaves me questioning every decision I have made. What does that mean for my blog? Welp, that too is evolving.

You have to walk before you run

I hate the mirror.  The other day I was trying on clothes and there staring back at myself in the mirror, was me.  The view I saw was one I had seen many times over.  I have even posted about my struggles with weight loss and my motivation to give it a go, time and time again.  Each time, not following through.  I thought about why I wasn’t sticking with the program or plan and … Continue Reading...

I went to the doctor and I liked it
The other day I went to the doctor and I liked it.  I haven’t been to the doctor in three years.   I have been putting it off because I hate doctors. The last time I was seen by a doctor, I was told that I’d never lose weight and I should just go on medicine to lower cholesterol.  I internalized that and instead, I never went back.
