Hello friends! My name is Jackie. Most people who have landed here would be my friend, but if you came here by chance, it\u2019s really nice to meet you.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve just had this crazy battle with my weight for a very very long time, and because of a myriad of reasons medical and otherwise, it was almost impossible for me to lose weight. Until now.<\/p>\n

I lost 33 lbs of stubborn genetic fat in 6 months naturally. No diet pills, no crazy teas, and definitely no slimming centers that wrap and pinch the hell out of you. I’m 34 years old.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s crazy how supportive you have been to me. I posted my BEFORE\/AFTER picture two days ago and have about 90 likes on Facebook now. This picture!<\/p>\n[wide]\"\"<\/a>[\/wide]\n

So why have I decided to start another website when so I have so many other things to do?<\/p>\n

Simple. I want to keep a journal of what I do to reach my goals and motivate myself. If what I share will help you in your own journey, then I’d be most happy that I am helping you live a fuller, happier, richer life. I don\u2019t mean that you\u2019d have to be skinny to do that, but you definitely have to be healthy.<\/p>\n

A while back, I wrote down all the things that mattered to me on a huge piece of paper. Then I circled them. There were probably 30 things on that paper, but I had to choose the 6 most important things to me, and rank them.<\/p>\n

Through this process, I discovered that more than anything, HEALTH was the most important thing for me.<\/p>\n

You can have love, but if you\u2019re all sick and dying, it\u2019s pointless if you can\u2019t breathe long enough to say I love you.<\/p>\n

Likewise if you have all the money in the world and bad health, you can\u2019t really go anywhere and would likely spend all the dosh on medical and hospital bills.<\/p>\n

So HEALTH is my No. 1 priority.<\/p>\n

If I have good health, I can help other people. So this is what this blog is about. How to maintain your health with a smile on your face.<\/p>\n

Of course, the advantage of having good health is that naturally, your body shows it. I can\u2019t guarantee that I\u2019ll never fall victim to genetic diseases, but I know whatever I am doing is helping slow it down.<\/p>\n

And my attitude of gratitude is what matters.<\/p>\n

I want to be clear that I’m not a healthcare professional, and what I do may or may not work for your individual case. I’m simply sharing what works for me – and what hasn’t. Please consult your own healthcare professional before starting any program.<\/p>\n

So stick around, say hello, and let me know what you\u2019d like to read from me. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
