Inconsistent Intent

I started this blog on June 11, 2012 with the intention of writing regularly. As you can see, I wrote a total of:

  • 5 posts in 2012,
  • 1 whooping post in 2013
  • None for 2014
  • Zilch for 2015
  • 6 in 2016 and...
  • Zero in 2017
The ironic part about it is that describes much of my weight loss journey; inconsistency. The hard truth about it, is that after 6 years I'm heavier than I was when I started. When I started this blog, I was 170 lbs and for me that was overweight. Fast forward 6 years and I'm 235. 2-3-5. Wait. What now? Yep, 235 lbs. You'd think I'd have it together now especially since I'm no longer a food stamp recipient. I mean the purpose of the blog was to teach those in the hood how to eat healthy. Unfortunately, due to my inconsistency, that didn't turn out so well.  And for that, I apologize. But the last 6 years have not been all bad.

I moved out of state and managed to get down to 146 lbs in 2014. But after another financial crisis and short stint in a homeless shelter, I returned home and gained it all back and then some. But how does that happen? Quite honestly, laziness. You see, I'm not lazy in the usual sense. Believe it or not, I have a stellar work ethic - when it comes to helping and working for others. However, when it comes to Staci Sweet & Company and being the CEO of me, I don't do as well. I take care of, support, and protect everyone else, but usually manage to neglect taking care of myself. So here I go...again...on this weight loss journey. Only this time, I'm going to let this weight stay lost. I have no intention of bringing it back with me or trying to find it again.
