Good Bye, Buddyslimmers!

It is very sad to leave, but I am moving on to a more and exciting place.  I will miss all of you; especially those whom I have kept in touch during my short time with buddyslim. I don’t know how much weight I have lost but wanted to leave you with the  word “motivation” which is a key word to success in every aspect of life.  It’s important to surround yourself with positive nonjudgmental individuals.  Don’t allow the “dramas” to hang you and weigh you down….Praise the lord for every breath you take and not many live to see this day “This gift of Life”

Help someone in need…for example, a neighbor who can’t do his/her lawn due to physical limitations.  A child who is struggling to read…. Volunteer, volunteer….to your level of capacity….

Good luck to you all!  Love yourself and enjoy life…you only live once.

Scale away!

I have decided to put away scale and focus on more important things such as eating right,  and control the stress level in my life.  I have lost weight but I don’t know how many pounds.  I motivate myself by taking pictures in my new outfits that I just purchased.

Shapewear: Anyone?

Can anyone recommend a good shapewear for the tummy.  This is my problem area no matter how much weight I lose and due to my back pain at time, I refuse to do excessive sit-ups. I was told a good one to try is “Lipo-in-a-box”.  Has anyone tried it?  Is it worth the money?

What’s your greatest Fear?

My greatest fear is getting stuck in an elevator alone.  It happened to me 13 years ago when I worked in New York City. I left my job and have never been able to take an elevator alone. What’s your fear?

Are you ready, get set, go!: 8 week challenge! From 7/12-9/6

I am trying to lose 2lbs a week for 8 weeks.  Anyone cares to join me? I understand that it can be difficult for some people to lose weight for whatever medical  or other personal issues  in their lives.  Regardless, we are here at Buddyslim to support each other. I hope you join me and do the best you can, even if you are unable to lose the 2lbs a week.  It’s okay, but be TRUTHFUL  about it. Good Luck to All….

Spoiled Brats!

When I post a blog.  I am ready to accept the positives as well as negatives.  I don’t want to hear anything from anyone who wants to just say things.  You have to mean it based on the fact written. No one learns, if the truth cannot be told.  Be strong and face the fact that you are here for the same goals.  If anyone is offended by what I say, by all means, I apologize for any comments.  Weight is a very sensitive issue for many people because our society makes it that way.  Why bother to blog if you are not willing to accept a person’s point of view…..According to the experts, the safest amount of weight to lose is 2 pounds a week. This individual who lost 12 lbs and I made a comment that I thought it was too much.  Ignorance about these  issues will not make them go away.  Let’s be real and be truthful…..

Temptation!

I already have my meal plans for the fourth of July weekend and will not let temptation ruin my goals.  I hope all of you realized how hard you have worked so far and to know not be tempted by the festivities of a “Holiday weekend”

May God Bless you and Bless America!  Have a Happy and safe 4th of July weekend!

I am new on the block!

Hello all-

I am new here to motivate and be motivated.  Let’s work together to make it happen……
