Hello! I am the weight loss BFF, otherwise known as BIG FAT FATTIE. My blog is a result of waking up one day COMPLETELY exhausted. I'm stressed out, constantly fatigued and very unhappy. I sound like a gem of a girl, right? Well, I used to be.
Like so many people, I have a high stress job. Admittingly, Unlike so many people, I travel for work. I move from place to place every year or so. It's completely exhauting. Add in being single, working constantly and starting from scratch as soon as I meet a boyfriend, friends and...let's face it, start to learn my way around new home du jour.

How did I get to this point? The major revelation that I am COMPLETELY EXHAUSTED, TIRED and OVER FEELING MISERABLE? The revelation that I HAVE to DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT and take CONTROL of my WELLBEING?
I traveled over 2500 miles over the course of three weeks, and that was just on the weekends. In between I worked 10 hour days (minimum). I ignored taking care of myself in order to PLEASE EVERYONE ELSE. On my last trip, I was driving back and bought an audiobook on Audible. I synced with my car stereo and listened to the GRIT DOCTOR give me the cold, hard truth: To Get My SH!T Together.
This isn't a book review, but the book, as simple as it is encourage me to stop sticking my head in the sand and lying to myself. Stop thinking I look like my facebook profile picture (that was taken over a year ago at the peak of hotnesses and happiness). Stop ignoring the fact that none of my clothes fit. Stop ignoring that I bleed money because I'm too lazy to make a budget. Stop telling myself I don't have time to eat healthy because I'm always too tired to cook or clean. Hello! I'm too tired to cook or clean because I'm not caring for myself with proper nutrition.
Enter Isagenix. Yes, I am starting Isagneix. I was so skeptical, and to be honest I still am. I went for it and bought the President's Pak (while having a panic attack because it's so expensive). I researched, and I decided I am too desperate not to try it. Besides, I landed in the hospital a week ago due to exhaustion. Yeah, NOT FUN. Also, more expensive than Isagenix.
So, join me on the BIG FAT FATTIE journey as I transform my LIFE from a miserable, stressed out existence to a HEALTHY, HAPPY and AMAZING life.
