Transformation Butterfly's Journal, 25 Jul 20

Hello Fatsecret Family,

First I would like to THANK all of your supporting comments and prayers. I do believe in GOD and prayers and I thank those who prayed for me and my brother from another mother. Your support and comments helped a lot. For those who sent the negative comments regarding prayers. My mother always said, "If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing". (Word to the wise person who knows when to hold his/her tough). Now that I have said this my test results came back "NEGATIVE". While I was waiting for my test results to come back I was contacted by another friend who helps a lot of people that he and his entire family tested positive. He informed me they are self medicating with over the counter cold medication and he's getting lots of rest. His mother in-law is in the hospital and she is positive also. I checked in with him yesterday and he felt a lot better but a person use to going to work everyday finding it hard to just hang around the house. (He is the only person working in his house ever even prior to pandemic, he is also a Diabetic and like me considered an essential worker. His boss tested positive and the virus is in his lungs. Yes, he wore a mask everyday and they cleaned the work space and his job had been santized by professional company twice after other workers tested positive.

I did unpack my treadmill which is foldable and a easily put away and out of sight. It's a mechanical treadmill and not motorized so it takes a lot of energy to use it, so I am sure with daily use it will add in my weight loss journey. Electrical is easier and nothing to do but turn on and start walking but a mechanical treadmill makes you conscious of your body alignment and stability of your body. (I am currently wearing knee supports as I have arthritis in both knees and this helps.)

I am 8 days away from my 54th birthday and I am not happy with my where I am with my weight and health at the moment, but I know this is a journey that beings with just one step and I willing and able to make the first step with the help with some pain medication (It's okay to laugh at this point for those of you who have had the sore muscles.) This journey can be made a little more enjoyable with the people you meet along the way FAT SECRET FAMILY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Smoothie Breakfast:

2 cups of baby spinach
1 cup cold water
1/2 cup of blended Greek Vanilla Nonfat Yougurt (Good & Gather-Target)
1 Banana
1 tsp. Flax Seeds, Chia and Hep
1 scoop of protein powder


Share your smoothies with me if you have any. Finding ingredients a little more difficult now, but this only calls for a few ingredients easily found.

Okay tomorrow will be a weigh in date for me and I have to get on the treadmill now.👍👍


Thank you for reading my journal and yes it's very difficult to put yourself out there when some people make it a point to attack and send negative energy to people expressing themselves. This why a lot of people choose to go it alone and some group websites wonder why people just fade into the background and eventually stop logging on. It's not that they don't need the help or support it's because of negative people. The reason I logged in here years ago was because this website felt like a FAMILY. People who are caring, supportive and YES like a family we get on each other for not staying on track to reach the goal line. We don't beat people up with our beliefs or philosophies but we can be SUPPORTIVE, KIND, and CARING to move forward to the goal. When one of us fall we stop to pick them up, dust them off and get them back on their feet to move on and continue the journey. If they need support everyday then we are there and when they don't need the daily support we back off and let them go on their own, but they know that FATSECRET is a place they can check in and get what they need to keep going.

I am so glad to get your update and to know you are OK. Keep being careful! A mechanical treadmill is a workout for sure... Much more so than just going for a walk but so good! Do take care of your knees! You are one of the most interesting, real, admirable people I have ever seen post here. I am thankful for your contribution and for your being here. There are sad, small people who just are just so miserable that they have to attempt to make others like them. Take care! You are a blessing!
