In The Beginning
From the time I was a kid, I always wondered where I would be by the time I reached 21. Well, here I am, a 21st century junior in college in the midst of a pandemic, and I never thought that I would be on the path of spiritual awakening that I am; working through my childhood traumas, releasing fears that had been keeping me stagnant and then some. Not to mention living through a pandemic, and the toll it has been taking.

F stands for Fuck it.
Setting the stage in a Planet Fitness in the West end of Atlanta, Georgia. Now take a walk with me into the multiverse that is social and general anxiety. It has been almost a year since the pandemic, and equally so, since I have been inside a sweaty gym. Usually the gyms is social anxiety's playground where everyone can see how “bad my form is”, but when I was there all I could concentrate on was the fact that: there are too many people for my own comfort, I know these people ain’t really cleaning the equipment that well, and why are they allowing folks to not wear a mask?

The witching year
Six years ago, I spent months deathly ill. My body was shutting itself down. It started slowly. I had pins and needles throughout my body. My skin hurt to touch. My mind went fuzzy until I couldn’t remember basic words like cup. I couldn’t walk, I couldn’t shower myself, I couldn’t put on my shoes. If I fell down, I was stuck there until someone found me. Try sitting on a toilet seat with your bum numb or tingling. I couldn’t understand why I couldn’t walk. Yes, my feet were numb, but I knew they were there. I knew how to walk. Why did I have to feel them to get them to hold my weight? I saw specialist after specialist. No one knew what was wrong with me. I was dying. There was still too much to do, I couldn’t leave my husband and children behind. I had to find a way to heal myself If the doctors couldn’t.

Why Meal Prepping is Vital for Weight Loss
One of the most widely talked about topic in the fitness and nutrition industry is meal prepping. An article from Oxygen, states that, "one of the most important benefits of meal prepping is that it can help reduce the stress that comes with trying to eat healthier. Solving all your food decisions in advance really frees up some of your willpower and mental stress, helping you reach your goals faster and with more ease." Weighing your food and counting your calories while meal prepping for the week make it easier to grab and go and track your food intake. If you don't have a kitchen scale, I highly recommend investing in one. You can find some for less than $15 and you'll be more accurate when tracking your meals.
