It’s time for an update on my life transformation journey again: my week 5 weigh in at Blue Sky MD.
There’s one thing I’m finally realizing: When you’re happy, you’re healthy.
Now I don’t mean that superficial happy of some who think they can do/say/eat whatever they want and still be healthy and happy.
No way.
What I would suggest is something I’ve believed in my head for ages but finally make click in my heart: when you look at getting healthy and losing weight as a lifestyle change instead of a science project it becomes part of your everyday routine and works with you…not against you.
I’ve realized I can’t go into Blue Sky MD each week and apologize for my busy lifestyle…or complain that I was traveling…or use the excuse, “but I was gone all day!” Instead, I’ve accepted that we lead a life on the go and must plan our lives and yes, even our food choices, accordingly.
That means anything and everything from packing yummy & healthy snacks for my day before I leave the house to simply looking up restaurant nutrition information on the web before I go sit down somewhere and look at a menu.
Blue Sky MD provides the tools for my transformation, but only I can be the agent of that change.
And the proof is in the results:
Another successful week! Here are the numbers:
Weight: 162.4 (that’s almost another 2 pounds down from last week!)
BMI: 26.2
I think the best part is that those 2 pounds were all fat! I’m still holding my water weight (once again dispelling the myth that programs like this just make you lose water weight), so I may need to drink even MORE water than I already am (which doesn’t seem possible…. 😉
My goal for this next week is to break the 160 barrier, but I have an event in Atlanta for 4 days, so I’ll just have to face this challenge head on!
Jenny really took a lot of time with me at this week’s weigh in to come up with some more natural, healthy snacks and encouraged me to not only plan out my meals in advance, but also to prepare them so I don’t fall victim to running short on time.
It’s still a work in progress, but I’m encouraged by my progress and grateful for all your support along this life change I’m on!
Blue Sky MD does have quite a few clinics, but they are situated mainly in the Southeast. Check out their locations here and feel free to give them a call to find out more about a free consultation that could lead to your own transformation!

Congrats, Sami! You look great! The best advice I ever received about weight loss is this: If you fail to prepare, you prepare to fail. Wise words for all!
So true! Thanks Jen 🙂
