Weighing Out

Ladies and Gentlemen - Don't ignore the headaches or other symptoms. ...

So about my weekend....

It's cold out and the time change has messed my workout regimen all the way up. Thankfully Youtube is my friend on a regular basis and I have found someone who teaches online cardio sessions for at least 30 -45 mins.  FOR FREE FOR REAL FOR HURT OUCH!!!!! ...

I was sitting at my desk and it hit me like a ton of bricks - "Dude, go get that bamboo steamer." Ok so after looking around and noticing that there was no one in the room I hit the gas pedal and found it. Check out this recipe for pot sticks aka steamed dumplings. INGREDIENTS: 1 lb of ground turkey 1 lb of spicy sausage  1/2 cup...

BRUH!!  I'm from Louisiana aka The Dirty South and there are some things that can't ever be forgotten.  SKINS/CRACKLIN -  WITH A COKE OR A BEER WHILE AT THE FAMILY REUNION?  THE SHIT!!!&nbs...

I get really uncomfortable when the seasons change because I really enjoy working outside in the elements. I can sweat, jog, breathe hard and simply enjoy the views of the skyscrapers etc. This time change has done a slight number on my workout regimen but hey what can I do.  Im not mother nature so I can't change a season. Im actually...

She taught me to fight, be smart, be kind, take no prisoners and always take care of my sister.  So blessed to still have her in my life.  I LOVE YOU BIRTHDAY GI...

Being based in the mid south I have everything I need consumer wise. Im talking Macy's, Target, parks, international airports but there is something missing and it just isn't right.  Trader Joe's - these local city leaders need to get with the program because I have to drive at least three hours away to Nashville for those chocolate...

So many people ask me all the time how am I able to maintain a somewhat healthy eating regimen. First off? Im not the most healthier eater out there BUT I am probably one of the most pickiest. I prefer fruits and vegetables instead of the canned items. I mean those cans are filled with standing water in them and even though they serve a good...

Thank God for my sister - She blessed us with this amazingly smart and witty person.  Proud Uncle Moment ...

Ok so pay attention because this is gonna be quick and to the point. It has been kind of cold these past few days and you know what that means in my household? You guess it: SOUPS ON!!  Check out this recipe for Sausage and White Bean Soup and please believe it was good. Yeah it was cause it wasn't much left.  My wife had a...

NO WORDS - JUST A PICTURE  ...

I don't know what it is BUT anyone who knows me will let you know that I love my hats/caps etc. I don't know its because I'm a bald headed guy or what but it is what it is. Ladies and Gentlemen - My Hat ...

A Week ago  Puerto Rico  Sigh&nbs...

It's been a long haul to lose these pesky pounds but I wouldn't have it any other way. I have been working on this weight loss thing for quite a while now and every step is better than the las...

*Rocking Back and Forth* My grandmother always said, "Don't let the Devil Ride cause he gone wanna drive"and guess what? A few days ago he got in the drivers seat *dont know how* but he did and I ended up at Gibson's doughnut...

My life is an endless turn of travel, good music, happiness, fashion, love and food BUT not necessarily in that order. If I had to add something else to the above mentioned mix? It would have to be my amazing bear...

Ok so this post is simple and to the point. Im not really one for breakfast. I mean, I'm a busy guy so here is my go to meal/snack/breakfast that works for me. Until next time...

A few weeks ago my sweet tooth shifted into overdrive and I found myself obeying the urges. I guess this is what it feels like to have an addiction to something and how it comes up on you at the most unexpected time...

Anyone who knows me or my amazing wife know the drill. We may or may not return your phone call because we are always on the run - Bey & Jay aint the only ones -  we are always somewhere do something. We live a pretty cool life and definitely desire to have children but before we take on that lifetime commitment we give it all we have...

Today was hectic and that is ALWAYS cause for a good home cooked meal in my house. I took the proper exit once I hit the freeway and hit up my local market. I decided on the ever awesome Italian Wedding Soup which is perfect for a cold night in the city and with a slice or *coughs* slices of cheese brea...

I snatched up a very affordable crock pot from Target last weekend and boy I was itching to use it and use it I did. I mean it was super quick and easy and before I knew it?...

Today was a fast paced day at the office and I HAD to get my workout on afterward. The weather is insanely beautiful in my city these days and I took advantage of it and got to power walking.&nb...

Check out my bowl of healthy grains!!!...

My instagram followers list is FULL of amazing people who make equally amazing healthy foods and I often find myself staring at the dishes. Oh God how I wish there was such a thing as Smell-O-Visio...

My mom always shares with my sister and I that we should support cancer research any way that we can but it often falls on deaf ears. It's not that we don't listen but life is fast and there are loads of other responsibilities that we are dedicated too. Yeah I know, we need to listen to mom mor...

No, I don't want it. Not at all. Yep!! That's what I said for years and a day but thankfully my amazing wife changed my mind. See the way I remember it is my great aunt making it the regular way and not really like it. I won't tarnish her memory saying it wasn't good, I will just say, she meant wel...

Man on Man, I have been on the go lately but my eating regimen is still in a good place. My desire for more vegetable is still on 100 and I have a good one to share with my friends.  I mean, who doesn't like a good vegetable roasted in a clean oven *Please clean your oven folks*. Check out this quick and easy recipe for roasted...

Yeah Yeah!! I know that the title is long and somewhat of a run on sentence BUT it is worthy of the run on. It has been under 20 degrees in my city and judging from the chill in the air, it is a perfect time to pull out the pots, pans and bowls. Check out this amazingly quick and easily recipe for Turkey Chili which is sure...
