Today I weighed 228lbs down 101 pounds from my 2014 high of 329 pounds. It has been a challenge to reach my goal of 200lbs but I keep on fighting and I am proud of my accomplishments.

Today I tipped the scale with a loss of 82.8 pounds. I am at my lowest weight in more than 20 years. I almost lost a person! I still have 50 to go but I know I can do it!

An impressive milestone. Down 90.8 pounds. A small human. I feel amazing. I am planning on losing another 39.2 pounds to get to 200. I canโt believe I ever weighted 329 pounds. The health benefits have been remarkable. The key is portion control and not depriving yourself
Today is my official retirement day from

Today I am down 100.2 pounds from my Highest weight of 329 lbs. I worked very hard to reach this milestone and my body is so grateful for it. No more chronic knee pain. No more cane for walking. Now I only have 28.8 more pounds to reach my goal of 200 lbs.
I am Black, queer, disabled, a woman โฆ.a minority in so many ways but still I feel empowered to lead. I am passionate about our pursuit of a more livable Planet. We canโt afford to screw this up. Come on fight.

Here are all the songs that I have released so far. They are on Youtube. Have a listen and share your feedback. It took me 9 years to make the album Peace of Mind. I was obsessed with perfection. I think I missed the mark, but you be the judge. Oneโค๏ธ
Just because Iโm black doesnโt mean I am an authority on issues related to racism. All I can speak is my truth about living in my black skin for 54 years. Iโm a proud Canadian first. But saying that you value diversity when thereโs so much is inequality, Is denying my reality.

Thanks for owning your silence. I see a lot of artists focussed on only promoting their art and not investing in their communities. The injustice experienced by the people of my race has gone on for too long and now is not a time for Silence, itโs a time to stand up and be heard.
I believe that people are waking up to the dark reality that exists on this planet. Inequality- injustice, intolerance, fear and oppression. This white woman has a Fu&king LOT to learn and atone for. My silence and my ignorance has long been part of the problem. And I am sorry.
I proved that I am a fighter. 2014 I weighed 329 lbs and I am now down 103lbs. I quit gambling Aug 22, 2020 after starting in 1996. I quit smoking cigarettes Jan 8th 2021 after more than 40yrs. I quit Cannabis Oct 15 2022 after 10yrs. So I say bring on the

My stomach hurts. Itโs anxiety. Anxiety over wanting to say the right words and not alienating anyone who comes to my profile. I donโt want the conversation to only be about racism. I want to speak of love, acceptance and the things that unite us. Honour to have this platform
I believe everyone comes into your life for a season and a reason. That is why I like the interactive nature of twitter. A million or ten followers, we all have the ability to communicate with each other. I like following the bread crumbsโฆ.๐

They think the man who filed bankruptcy multiple times will handle the economy better than the woman who studied economics in college. I canโt.
Government subsides of the fossil fuel industry must stop now. The money should be reinvested into Renewable energy strategies. It should be like ripping off the bandaid. No slow transition. The money grab has gone on for long enough.

Also always thought the color of "black" people's skin is most beautiful of all, even as a kid. I never did understand hating someone for the color of their skin. Color is what makes the world *beautiful*, isn't it? Please NEVER be ashamed of your color. You are BEAUTIFUL.

Today I weighed 92.8 pounds down from my highest weight. Iโve been focussed on eating healthy. Now I need to add exercise to the mix. I am so proud of how hard I have worked. This is my lowest weight in 20 years.

Every loving, committed relationship is Godly, and sexuality is irrelevant. Your parents were products of a different generation and I'm convinced that change can take place long beyond what we consider to be life. You're blessed, and loved.

We must influence the top 1% of CO2 emitters. They are the problem. We are in the battle of our lifetime to conserve our planet. I believe we have the solutions. We need to focus our energies on getting the buy in from private jet setters and Billionaires who donโt seem to care

You fail to understand that your focus should be on shutting down Oil and Gas production and transitioning to renewable energy sources. The future of our Planet is at risk and it is leaders like you that seek to divide us.
