Greetings all, It has been one solid year of eating like I got some sense. One year ago, my doctor spit out an awful diagnosis. High Blood Pressure. Stroke adjacent. Daily Pills. After being pissed off and eating my through a pandemic for five months, I made a decision. I would not be a statistic… Read More »
My first thought when someone says “be reasonable” is always “f%ck you”. However, when asked what my determination would be for a spiritual group, I chose to clean up the language and go for a more sedate- STOP BEING REASONABLE!!! All around the world things go on that seem very unreasonable and we adjust and… Read More »
You’ve been lied to. Your friends and family think your stupid and gullible. They don’t know any better because they’re stupid and gullible. What is all the drama and nonsense about? Money.. You’ve all heard the ridiculous cliche’s and probably spouted a few yourself. Money is the root of all evil. Money can’t buy happiness.… Read More »
Something happens when you reach an almost twenty-year-old goal! You lose your s$%t! This is what happens. You begin to believe that anything is possilbe. You begin dusting off old dreams and thinking “what next?” instead of “it’s too late”. Let me catch you up… Michael Moore’s Bowling for Columbine premiered in 2002. Although I’d… Read More »
Was my grand experiment a failure? Could I haave done things differently? I’d have to say yes and no to the first question and a resounding yes to the second question? My goal was to go thirty days without sugar. And regardless of how much I want to blame the food industry for my slip… Read More »
Maybe I’m running out of ways to lament about my battle. I just heard a challenge that involves not only no sugar but no manufactured meat substitutes. My friend calls it franken meat. Although, I ‘ve let the sugar go (with the exception of what they slip into my yummy oat milk) I’m still eating… Read More »
As I approach the end of this month-long experiment two things are clear. One- I can do this! And Two- I’m a filmmaker ya’ll. I am completing a new documentary on health and black men and was wise enough to document my journey and all that I’ve learned in the process. I’m unsure if this… Read More »
My plan was simple. Eat between 10am and 4pm only. It seemed easy enough and a snap to execute. But as Mike Tyson would say “everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face”. Well my face punch came quick and uninvited. What I failed to consider and plan for was the “big… Read More »
At this point, I usually quit! I’m approaching the half way point and… Someone shoved me off the wagon yesterday. My neighbor made the hubby a cake and I wasn’t willing to be rude. Perhaps I should have stuck to my guns and had a cup of coffee instead. I could have waddled in guilt… Read More »
Tonight’s the night ya’ll… I’m hosting a wonderful birthday party for my lovely husband. And this means (you know it), Carrot Cake! If I can walk way from this temptation, I can do the rest of this month in a most beast like fashion. Did I mention there would also be pizza? Many times we… Read More »
