THE RESOLUTION

Before the end of this year, I wanted something to blog about. So I sent a whatsapp broadcast to some of my contacts asking them on what to blog about. My former Broadcast Journalism lecturer gave an answer and that instant it seemed pointless to me.  He said “You can blog about something else. Take a break from your life at least this season”. It took me two months to finally get what he was actually trying to say to me. When I woke up today everything he said finally made sense and I get it now. If you my readers really observed,

I never posted any New Year resolution like I've done for the previous years. Well it’s because I figured out that there was no need putting a list down and ignoring it to do other things. My resolution was to make a resolution every day of my life. That is, go through something and take the lessons from it and actually work on it.

The blog started as a weight loss blog. When the goal weight was finally achieved, I made it all about me. A personal blog. A place where I can share all my feelings and what I’ve been going through. Well I’m not going to stop sharing my feelings up here but from today, there will be less sharing of personal feelings and more sharing of weight loss goals and feelings. What majority of my readers don’t know is I gave up on myself and gained most of the pounds I lost back.

So of my friends and I decided to take that bold step again to finally lose the weight and keep it off. So just like my lecturer said I’m taking a break from myself. Now going to focus on my friends and the good things and the hot mess we are about to be. In my next write up, I’ll introduce them to you guys and then we will take it from there.


HAPPY NEW YEAR!

THE GRACE OF GOD

A single picture became my motivation to the beginning of this journey. I never wanted to get my picture taken because I knew I had packed on some weight. There came in the comments from my course mates telling me how fat I’ve gotten and so on. Some even went to the extent of saying I’m not coming to class because I said I’ve gained weight; that was sad.  The comments they passed did hurt but it didn’t motivate me to change my lifestyle. As time went by, I got so used to their fat body shaming and comments. But what they didn’t know was the fact that I had already given up on myself: so nothing they said was actually going to push me to change. Even with that I’ll start eating healthy for a minute, hit the gym and give up on that same week. Until my course mate took a picture of me when I wasn’t looking after I had instructed him not to take any picture of me.  A single picture became my motivation to the beginning of this journey. My first look at the pictur...

GENERAL THINGS

1) 2nd day of the 2nd week on the Dukan diet and I’ve noticed the people around don’t really understand what I’m doing. They keep asking me why that much chicken, Eggs, fish? Others even added I’m going to get more fat eating those things and I can’t even explain it to them because they won’t even get. 2) About the water issues….I wasn’t much of a water drinker. I started drinking 1.5litre of water when I started the Dukand Diet but now I can even drink 8litres of water everyday. I used the water a lot because I don’t have an oat bran which is required for this diet well atleast for now. 3) The Protein….I only use chicken, Eggs, Fish and Beef. That’s the only protein available for me. Already sick of the eggs and fish but I’m really trying my best even though I don’t have much variety of foods to eat. 4) Vegetables…I only use cucumber, salad leaves, tomatoes, pepper and Onion. I also found a frozen Broccoli at Opoku Trading which is a new addition to my vegetables PS: I take my PP ...

I'll CRY IF I NEED TO

I woke up feeling terrible I mean horrible....did I say I woke up?? Naaaaa haven't slept since last night. I couldn't sleep kept tossing around and the only proper song I could listen to fit my mood was Drake's doing it wrong so you can just imagine what a horrible night it has been for me. Morning is here aint feeling any better had a lot of message wishing me happy valentine but none of them make sense to me. I'm going crazy I can't even find the words to explain my mood but all I know is I don't want to face the world tonight.....I don't even want to smile to a single soul. Yes my love life has been a failure but whatever!! Someday someone gonna love me too!! Miss Taylor Swift I love you twiny and I hope someday you'll find true love too!!!
