Today is Day 16 and I wanted to provide an update on the current progress I been making!

Start weight: 280 lbs

Todays weight: 255 lbs

Down: 25 lbs 💪

Progression Week: moderately adding weight or more reps on current weights. Lots more cardio. Pushing through the burn 🔥.

Funny story:

My nephew walks through people and objects like they are not there. He just jams right through getting to where he is going... you never notice your own actions until you see them done by someone else. I don't know why but I could never recognize my size. In my mind I'm the size of my eyes and I can fit into anywhere! I swear the struggle is real! 🤣

Overall update:

I'm feeling better in what I been wearing. Some shirts I can't wear no more cause they are ridiculously big on me. There is still so much work to do. I have my target areas that I'm focused on improving or eliminating.

I'm seeing very small differences in my face. I have to remind myself that you don't see today's work until the following week! One thing for sure is I'm starting to like the person I'm seeing in the mirror more and more! This week I'm putting a stop to the self humility. I won't be joking about “My fatass this or that”. This started out trying to keep it real and it ended up being a thing I just eventually accepted. I will not being doing that no more!

I'm still struggling with getting my dinner schedule set to an exact time give or take 15 mins. This is important to me because I have built the habit of eating late and laying down. Another area I must improve is eating less of the foods that are not beneficial to me like sweets and icecream.

This is part of my journey where I reflect, acknowledge and now hold myself accountable. I know better and still work against myself. All this talk of commitment and I have not fully committed to main contributing factors that get in my way. There is no “I need to.. I am trying… —It is time that I be dedicated to “I will.. I have.. I did!

I want to Congratulate You? On Every thing you are doing? We are very pleased to be on your team ? Thank You so much for teaching me as I work alongside. You are very Blessed 🙏❤️.

It's day 4 of this journey and it's Sunday! A rest day thankfully. I feel bad for appreciating it but at the same time I think it's important for me to recognize it's just one day of each week. So I tried not to get to comfortable and told myself: "the accomplishment is going to come until this is a routine!" I will feel much better when I get up tomorrow and know I found it within me to keep going!

I struggled all day trying to use my legs! I been walking like I'm on stilts. My legs feel like I'm going to collapse and I been laughing at how I been plopping down everywhere!

I'm prepared for tomorrows progression. More reps + weight + new workouts 🙌

Ouch! I was struggling with form today when I was attempting the Bulgarian Split Squats. I was using a box for my toe placement and I am not sure if the lack equipment was a reason but swear I felt like I was going to lose my balance. I noticed I'm not comfortable doing a 90 degree squat just yet but I'm eager to get it right. I started with 15 lbs weights and I attempted 2 on each hand at first and was feeling the burn in the right area. Switch to just one weight using two hands resting each side in the palm and this made a big difference for me in form and I noticed myself getting closer to what I want.

As soon as I finished I felt the burn 🔥 all through my legs. I know tomorrow I'm going to feel it. Thank gosh I got this amazing product by Herbalife from a mentor of mine Nadine! This product helps me with not feeling the fatigued muscles as bad I would the next day. In fact when I used this in the past I was able to use my muscles that I worked out the previous day comfortably the following day.

Today I woke up a little later than I planned. I felt a bit worn out from the workout + work from the day but I knew no one else was going to push me at the moment. I don't want to have to depend on a reminder from someone else; but rather hold myself accountable and put in the work. I want to prove to myself that this is a commitment. I have to remind myself that this is just the beginning and that after routine is achieved the maintenance burn feels ironically good. The sets are more manageable. I know a week from today I will see a difference and then again the following week!

You got this

I’m excited to see what’s in store for us , I love you !

Woke up today at 3:30 AM and I couldn't fall back to sleep. I decided to get up and hit the sauna. I want to commit to getting up early and beginning my day with my self health first. As I was sitting in the sauna I remember the importance of being a proactive person vs. a reactive person. I want to wake up and be ready for my day. I want feel good in what I wear, have more options of clothes vs. a limited amount of options.

I will be with my staff today and I am looking forward to the conversations and lunch at Ruby Tuesdays for the Salad Bar!

Can't wait! I'll share photos soon!

I'll check back in momentarily! If you have a recommendation drop a comment. It really helps me out ❤️

your #1 cheerleader! Love you lots!!!
