I Want To Share My Weight loss Journey & Ex-Family Members

I’ve had several people who like to attack me and my family by posting memes of overweight people and they think it is funny. But did you know that these people actually have lost weight? Did you know that picking on someone else’s weight is considered bullying? This country has an issue with people struggling every day with weight issues why because the food industry promotes unhealthy things to eat like McDonald’s, Wendy’s, Mexican food, Etc. All of these places promote unhealthy things to eat. Yes, I was just like everyone else it was simpler to pull through the drive-thru and order food and that way I didn’t have to cook but it was definitely messing with my diabetes and health. 

I started my weight loss journey in March 2023 I have diabetes and my blood sugar levels would spike to over 400 at night time so since I have been on this my blood sugar has been perfect. The first thing I was put on was Ozempic injections. I lost about 10 pounds on this but my doctor switched me to Mounjaro and that is when the true weight started coming off. I started on the low dosage and at the moment I’m on 5mg fixing to move up to the next level because I’m losing the weight like I’m supposed to. Now I will tell you I don’t snack I don’t buy junk food, bread, chips, cookies none of that because I literally have self-control of my body now. Being on Mounjaro there is “NO FOOD THOUGHTS EVER”! 

Now I want to explain something and no I’m not embarrassed to say I like food but I was letting my body go downhill and that I wanted to change once I was able to get health insurance last year.  My highest weight was 238 pounds and I knew I was in trouble with my diabetes, and neuropathy. I needed to do something to get back on track so that I could live healthier and be able to go do things with my children and grandchildren like trick-or-treating walking I was able to do that this year and it felt GREAT! That was something I was struggling with before and my grandchildren enjoyed me going and walking and not being out of breath because of my weight pulling me down. 

I’ve worked hard since March 2023 on my weight and I’m pretty proud of myself as my family is proud of me and sees the results. I have gone from 3x in scrub tops to a 2x scrub top and as of this week I have moved to a 1x scrub top I went from a pants size 22 to 14 in December but as of today, I’m in a size 10 pants size so that is majorly big for me because I know I’m doing good with my weight loss. I’ve had to buy new clothes and that feels so good because you know you’ve done all the work to get to this point so why not treat yourself to a new wardrobe. 

So my weight started at 238 to 192= 46 pounds I’ve lost!

My husband’s weight 439.6 to 425.7= 13.9 pounds he has lost in a week.

My husband is on the same journey as me and he has been losing weight on the Mounjaro injections. In one week he has lost 6 pounds he is into his second week and doing fabulous I’m very proud of him.  I do meal preps portion-controlled, measuring the exact amount for both of us so we have our meals already made and planned out. No, we aren’t eating out we stick to the diet and our Mounjaro makes sure to not cause food thoughts or snack thoughts which is a plus. I can’t tell you how many times I have driven around the fast food restaurants and not pulled in because I don’t have that want or need for the food. My husband will be at his best soon and will be doing the things he once loved to do and that is spending time with his family and going places without being judged because of his weight. The other thing I want to mention because it was said last year about my husband because he has been homebound they said just wait till he dies well your wish won’t happen because he is on the road to recovery. His lungs may not be the best but he will be able to live a long productive life healthier than ever before.  But he will be able to drive again and spend time with our grandchildren who love him dearly. 

I want to also talk about when you have former family members who like to call me & my family names like this heifer, whale, dog, fat ass, etc… These very same people are insecure with themselves they are jealous of who you are and it is easier to sling mud at people you are jealous of because they are doing better than those that are being the bullies. But these same people never look in the mirror and see the disappointment they are in themselves. These same people judge anyone who doesn’t meet their standards all while they are no better than the next person. I put up with a lot out of these people and so did my sister Jaime and my brother Jason. That is for another post but The judgments I get from these people who proclaim to be Christians sit behind a screen and post hateful things about my family daily. Now listen I don’t have issues with people being Christians but I do have issues with them being hypocrites. How does one go to the Lord’s house and walk out criticizing others? Religion when I was growing up was literally shoved down my throat with a new Bible every year but I was the only child that the bio-mother did this to and to this day I will never understand why?

I’ve been put down on social media about not reading my Bible how do you know if I don’t read my Bible? Then sarcasm wouldn’t it be grand to have them at our church that it would be a great way to get them into church? Now the issue I have with that is I wouldn’t go to a church where the bio-mother goes because first of all the lies she has told them about my family and then the lies she isn’t telling the preacher about what REALLY happened in October 2022. See I watch church online I have a guy that preaches and trust me he really has corrected things that I was told growing up where the bio-mother would scare the pure crap out of me. Growing up in a house where you have been told about 3 different religions and you are only 10 years old is confusing as HELL. I grew up with a bio-mother reading Nostradamus and as a child hearing what she would say the world was going to end I always was worried and if you haven’t read that book then you don’t have any idea. Imagine a small child always hearing the world was going to end because of Nostradamus predications that was the world I lived in. Even as an adult, those same thoughts were happening when my children were little what parents put those thoughts in their children’s minds? I had never done that to my children ever because to me that was a form of abuse but back then it was so hard to prove things that these parents were doing to their children. 

Lastly, I want to make something very clear to the Ex-Family Members we as a family here don’t care about what you do or what you write about but when there are clear threats you are making yes we will keep screen recordings and screenshots because I know how you people work and its never clean. Every day these same people will post for attention and yes if it is something that is a lie I call them out on my Facebook page and make it public. What I don’t understand with these Ex-Family members is why are y’all so consumed with what we are doing, what we look like, what we drive, what we wear, what we eat down to posting on Facebook and TikTok multiple times a day about wishing bad things to happen to me or my family. You people have more time on your hands than any of us who have lives. Y’all keep wishing bad things on others and see if you get through those pearly gates. Maybe you should teach your toddler to read her Bible because of all the negative she posts about hoping someone breaks go out going down the hill and that a flower pot will hit you in the head like you like to lyrics. Not to mention so of the others wishing I would drive off a cliff and no one would miss me? See I have a family that loves me and cares about me I will always be missed by my loved ones. No one cares how you feel about me but continue to keep posting these Facebook and TikTok posts I’m keeping it all documented. I know you don’t care that it’s documented but that is what I have had to do in the past to prove what was said. I also don’t delete my Facebook posts they are up so they are seen and they are set to private but I have them all. You people talk big talk oh we don’t even talk about y’all but yet you post weeks on end about us because WHY? You like drama that has been the NUMBER 1 thing that your mother taught you. 

Does the preacher know you are wishing death on someone? Does your preacher know all the horrible things you say every day? I know not likely because you are a hypocrite just like your mother. Like I said I don’t have a mother and I am totally good with that. The mother I had never cared anyway about my safety or health. The mother I had is a narcissist, hypocrite, liar, etc… My life is more peaceful without the Ex-Family members in it because they were always asking for free things and I was sick of that completely. Please don’t come out and say you didn’t get anything for FREE I have photos of everything, cooler, hot water heater, tons of wood from a house, and let’s not forget the pump house you proclaim y’all spent money making well our metal roofing and the wood was used in it that was rotted camper boards, a ton of movies that were never returned, including medical equipment that was issued in Dwayne’s name from the VA. But you continue the bashing and we will continue keeping it all documented. Angel I am writing my book about the Ex-Family it will be on Amazon, Book stores. 

I also forgot to mention there was a blanket that was crocheted for me it has sat in a closet in a bag because I didn’t want it so a few weeks ago I put it on the Facebook marketplace I had 2 people who wanted it but I think one was a planted troll to try and make me feel bad but she found out real fast I wasn’t playing games and then all the sudden she was gone but the account was a fake account with a fake photo but anyway my bestie Ann sent me a message and said she wanted it so I gave it to her because she and I have been friends since 2009-present. But If she hadn’t asked for it I would have taken it to a nursing home for someone else to have it. Because I want nothing this bio-mother has done or ever given. The photo is below of the blanket.
