Why I'm Not Shaking Right Now

So I've gotten a GREAT number of emails asking me why I stopped taking my Body By VI Shakes. This post is just me going into details on why, at this moment, I am not shaking. TEHEHE .. I like that " shaking " .

 A few days after I hit my 10 pound marker, I weighed myself and I had gained 3 pounds. So I went about my usually routine, shake-snack-shake-snack-dinner-workout; and weighed again. I had gained another 2 pounds. So I was in my 3rd week and had gained 5 pounds back, and let's just say this girl was no happy camper. 

 I also started getting weird headaches about mid-afternoon. Now this could have nothing to do with the shakes but let's just say I haven't had them since I've been off of them. I am off of the shakes right now, but I'll be back on them in Mid - August. Since being off of them I have dropped 3 or the 5 extra pounds, can I get a WHOOP WHOOP!

 So just a few things I want to go over :

 Although I am not on the shakes, I still eat on a schedule and no more than 1200-1300 calories a day.
I drink at least 73 oz of water. If I don't "release" enough water that week, I take a fluid pill on the weekend. Let's just say you will not be going anywhere with that pill. 
I workout for at least 30 minutes for 6 days a week. 
The scale IS THE DEVIL! 
Give the shake a chance!
My mom and aunt are dropping weight like CRAY!

 Each day I'll be posting questions I'm getting about Body By VI. I'll be back on them Mid - August!!! 

 How's it going for you?

Check On Your Friends

So I had this whole blog written out in the shower about 30 minutes ago. For some strange reason I have been staring at this screen for 10 minutes with nothing to type. First let's talk about me, then we'll talk about you. Many of you do not follow me on social media but I am currently 37 weeks pregnant, still married, with a 20 month old. This second baby was NOT planned and honestly threw me into a world wind of emotions from day one when I found out. You can really prepare everything you need/want for your baby but still not be mentally ready. I, for one, am just now starting to get there. For the past few months I have been struggling with depression. I mean it was really bad. I didn't talk about it with anyone because honestly I did not want to hear any of the following : 1. You need to just go to church and pray about it. - FYI mental health is not something your pastor can scripture away. 2. You aren't the first person to have two babies back to back. - I ...

If It Were You, Would You Be Proud

I don't really know how to start this post, but ya'll rock with me so just let me have a moment. I love to blog but I am having time management issues with everything going on in my life. It doesn't make me money so it kind of goes on the back burner even though I love to do it. My small home town had a double homicide yesterday. I'm not listing names or locations because I respect the privacy of everyone in that situation. With a sad heart, my mind began to race with thoughts of "if this happened to me, have I lived the life I wanted?" Because it can happened to any of us. I live in Stone Mountain, GA and although my block is very quiet, little to no children on the block, just a few weeks ago my husband and I came home to a road full with police, fire department trucks, ambulance vans and cars everywhere. We still don't know what happened down there. I work for myself. My husband and I started a few businesses together and each of them has there se...

Dear MCM, I am a Husband

My girlfriend and I have been dating for 3 years. Recently we started talking about moving in together and I brought up marriage. She brushed off the question and I really paid it no mind. As we started going to look at rental places, I wanted more rooms than she and when she asked me why I brought up future kids and marriage. She laughed at me and said who said I was going to marry you. Honestly this took me back and hurt my feelings. I guess she noticed it and tried to "please" me later that night. Yes it was great sex, but I was still mad about what she said. This is her way of "hoping I don't bring it up again." We were deciding on what place to pick and I asked her what did she think about getting married in the next year or so. We both are stable, great jobs and in our early 30s. She said she doesn't know if she wants to marry me. I asked her why and she couldn't give me an explanation. I thought about it over the weekend and that following Mon...
