Life Update - 06/29/2019

Today marks a new step in my life as I have started to focus on me and making sure I gain good health and balance.

Currently, I am addicted to Spin Class at the gym which has given me a new passion to exercise.  This class is intense and at times challenging, but I realized in the end I just have to overcome my mind.  The mind is a very powerful tool and all people need to do is control it.  I believe if someone can overcome the doubt, fear, disbelief, or the ability to give up which their mind is saying than that person can overcome almost anything.

Another amazing avenue about life is my body is finally loosing weight.  It has been a massive battle.  I even had weight loss surgery, which did not get me to my goal weight, instead gave me additional health issues that I have to manage. The great thing this year brought me was more in tune to what my body needs and wants. First, I realized that I was addicted to sugar and my body did not like it, so I took a challenge to break the sugar addiction.  Secondly, my body started to reject a lot of animal products especially meat, so I had to figure out a new way of eating and decided to try a raw food diet.  As I shifted more to raw foods of fruits and veggies I began to feel amazing.  I still had an issue which was how do I get the protein the doctor want me to get; while I decided to not to worry about what the doctors recommended and listened to my body. I started to try new fruits and vegetables and became addicted to raw juice - my journey to a healthy me was evolving.

Finally, I am determined to keep going or plowing forward.  My biggest critique is myself, so I am determined to figure out how to love me.  I think some times people miss that part of life because we take care of so many other things or people that people leave out themselves.

Now is the time for action.  I don't know who this may help as it is an update on my progress of life. Folks remember go reach for the stars as each one of us have the power to do whatever we push our self into.  The journey is up to us, so go fight for it.

Lastly, live the dream you want to....You have the power to be successful - Go Get it!
