Hello B.O.O.M! Family. It’s been a while since I’ve been able to post real-time triumphs, struggles and updates, so here I am! These last few months have been something.

“Moving Towards Obesity” Part 13 (Saying Good-Bye)
My journey coming from average weight to moving towards Morbid Obesity has been one of the toughest fights of my life. Literally, I’ve been fighting for my life for about 16 years…a majority of my adult hood…self-soothing wounds that I didn’t know existed that needed healing…comforting myself to ease my grief over loved ones that […]
“Speak Life Over Yourself & Win”
In light of recent request and God moving upon my heart, today, I’m going to focus on the importance of Speaking Life over yourself…life over your circumstances…weight loss challenges…your children…your marriage…every vice…addiction…habit…God’s ultimate dream, plan and purpose over your lives.

“Moving Towards Obesity” Part 12
Looking back over my life and my journey of obesity…it’s been a very, very hard and arduous road. There are no words to ever describe the sorrow I felt and how I beat myself up for things I wasn’t capable of changing, things I didn’t know how to change. I spent years agonizing and disappointed […]

“Moving Towards Obesity” Part 9
It wasn’t until I became morbidly obese did I truly understand how obesity would impact my life. I didn’t understand how someone can suffer as a result of Morbid Obesity, in every way, until I became obese myself. I had head knowledge of how obesity could affect someone’s health, but thank God, I didn’t suffer […]
“Moving Toward Obesity” Part 8
You learn a whole lot in the midst of suffering. Suffering pulls the covers off of everything and leaves you with the bare truth. Suffering causes you to come face to face with yourself…it causes you to know who you really are, who God really is, your measure of true faith and understand your true […]
“Moving Towards Obesity” Part 7
With all of the trials my husband and I were going through during my pregnancy, as utterly disappointed as I was with myself for not losing weight or perhaps how inadequate and unready I felt in becoming a first time Mom, despite my heart complications, the previous cramping’s and more recently, losing my job, not […]
“Moving Towards Obesity” Part 6
I remember lying in bed one night watching T.V. and out of nowhere, it felt like my heart beat all of a sudden tripled and I could literally feel my heart pounding against my chest and beating in my throat…this went on for several minutes, then all of a sudden, it stopped. I was panicked […]
