Long time no see!!

Hey Everyone! So happy to see so many of you stuck around! My home life has always been crazy and so I’ve always posted to Tumblr at work. My job was so that it didn’t require much focus so I had time to post and what not, but my job changed and requires much more focus and so I dropped off the Earth! Too busy at home and too busy at work. I really wanted to keep in touch with everyone so I finally broke down and got a twitter.

If you are interested, you can follow me at https://twitter.com/ThatsWhatIThght

For those of you interested in health journey here is an update. Before I disappeared from here, I had lost 40lbs and was down to 240. When my job changed I regrettably fell off the wagon and gained that 40 back plus an additional 23! I ballooned up to 303lbs and was officially the heaviest I had ever been in my life! Here is a pic of me holding my niece from a year ago.

That pic is hard to look at for me. It takes me to a very sad place! BUT, I am happy to report that I was able to get my eating under control and have lost 100 POUNDS!!! I now weigh 203 and I’m happier and healthier than I have ever been in my life!! I was on blood pressure meds and was pre-diabetic and could see myself spiraling out of control!! Now that the weight is off, I am off the BP meds and I am no longer at risk for diabetes! I have also kept the weight off for a while now, which can be the most difficult thing to do!

Since I have lost the weight and kept it off, I’ve started batting around the idea of pursuing one of my other passions. I am going to start a youtube channel! It will focus mostly on reviewing movies and tv shows. I have always been a movie buff and as I’ve gotten other areas of my life under control I've really rekindled my passion for media. I also love the idea of sharing my thoughts with people. Thoughts of a regular person! I have the channel set up but I haven’t posted any videos yet because I want to put out quality content, I don’t want to just throw junk out there for the sake of posting something. I want it to be good! As you may have seen from my twitter handle the channel will be called “That’s what I thought” and it is what it says, just my opinions on film, TV, and I’m sure other things as they come up. If that sounds interesting to you then follow me on twitter for updates. I will update on here as well once I get everything up and running.

Thank you guys for all the support you’ve given me on my many journeys and I hope that many of you will come along with me on the new journey!

Here are some updated pics of me after there weight loss!

Thanks again!!
