Oh where oh where have I been....

Life has changed alot since I last logged in and it was crazy trying to recover my bloggeracct. Oh dear blooger, I promise I won't desert you again. So I last posted in August 2011 and the year is almost done. Where have I been? Everywhere, mentally physically or back again....I want to pay more attention to writing my thoughts and I will....Sheesh being gone so long is heavy, almost like starting/stopping exercising. I'm sure you want to hear all about my adventures and I will share, right now I got A CALL to make.

told you I was trouble....You know I'm no GOOD!

Sitting here thinking about Amy Winehouse and how we celebrate life after death. Why is it that is takes for you to DIE for people to understand you? What the french toast....its very shocking to me. I'm sure there is much left untold...compassion, acceptance and judgement swirl in the headlines....it's SAD yo!

any form of addiction can get the best of you, as none of us are exempt from the fleshy human temptress of life.

Another Side of Me

I think I am in a bit of a rut with the way I feel about people, places and things. Sure, its a broad statement and I'm not up to revealing what I mean just yet. This woman that has come out of me over the last few weeks is new to me. I have been traveling, dating and thinking (probably way to much) with no reason behind it. Why does that seem odd you ask? Because Teaks is a planner, BIG TIME....she ain't doing nothing without a plan, lol.  I guess that came with the  "back in da day" me, because this woman now is on a rampage. Losing weight and the energy is there without having to think about life and love step-by-step. I'm starting to think that maybe that was the cause of a few of the short comings I've had, especially with love. Who does that....Plan love? Was that really me, did I actually take time out to think about how love should be given or received from a man. I know exactly why I use to believe or think in this way, and if you really know me then you will have a clue of what it meant for me to "plan" love.

Otherwise, what I have been feeling is the real deal and I'm so excited about how I have taken the time to realize that I was so wrong. Rules and guidelines on when to love is HOSH-POSH, lol. Don't laugh, lol...shucks its literally silly but I will give myself credit and say that I'm sure there was no ill intentions while stuck in my ignorance.

Now I'm thinking that my time in this "life-force" can be a lot more full-filling, like the feeling that you get in the bottom of your tummy that hurts good. :) . I'm growing and introducing myself to the NOW me, and I think she was always in there. Just had no way of escaping this detailed web of planned life I made for myself. I'm happy to see this side of me, because it allows me to the best me and I hope I stay around for a while so that I can get to know me better.

You don't know SQUAT!!

O.k. seriously, lunges are the death of me but I can handle squats any day of the week. I started out with one bad knee and now thanks to P90x I have 2 bad knees. Now before you go all "Gaga" on me defending P90x because it could be something I'm doing, I will agree with you hands down. I'm doing the freakin program and I'm not too sure if its designed for my weight class but hopefully the pain will stop someday. Anywho, this is not about Tony although I love him this is about my quest to have a bigger "BOO-TAY". Yep a nicer fanny, bum, ham, junk, badonkadonk would be my hearts joy. But I don't want it flabby um um....I just think that's not my style: Toned and fit for my body is more my taste. I realize that as I move along my fitness journey there is a science to getting my junk the way I want it. EASY is no where near what I imagined but know how to drop it. But I just can't squat all the time, although it produces lovely results I need a total combination of Q-10,water, lunges-squats-running-and other ish to make it there.

This ruffles my feathers somewhat because I thought I had this all figured out, I thought all I had to do was drop it like its hot and BAM instant booty. So here is my personal challenge for the next 30 days:

1. Weight training exercises. A few of the weight training exercises that you should do includes squats, lunges, leg presses, and leg curls. These exercises will help you tone your thighs, along with making your booty bigger.
2. Fitness exercises. This consists of jogging on an inclined treadmill (hurts but works like magic), taking a fitness class like aerobics and kickboxing, and using the stair stepper. You should do these exercises at least 3 days a week.
3. Eat small, healthy meals. This will help you tone your thighs, keep your tummy lean and sexy, and help you with your booty. Some of the foods that you should eat are fruits, veggies, lean fish, whole wheat breads, whole wheat pastas, lean meats, and nuts.
4. Don't just do this one day and STOP. That would be kinda of crazy, lazy and darn right stoopid. The key is consistency while doing this. You won't see the healthy results you want by working out today, rest tomorrow and so on.

I have to do all of the above to see a glimpse of change so why can't you. Yeah it's hard I know and believe me I know I'm not alone in this. I thought I was going to workout for a month or so and see HUGE results. Goes to show how much I thought I knew, instead I will tread on everyday to master the infamous booty that I know is just screaming to come out and show the world her arrival. All other goals will fall in place-


In the meantime, enjoy one of the workouts I am trying to help get there. healthy.

Tested with no Eraser

Not so much to write tonight sitting here in the dark. I was thinking though of how far I have come in this life. I think about how people with no real purpose live to push you to the max and to gain what?

With me, I think its my attention because I have a tendancy to ignore negative people, and when I was younger friends would say I was naive for doing so. Brushed my shoulders off each and every time for people that don't matter to me one way or the other. BUT what happens when its a friend, a good friend? In this age could I be being tested because of my endurance to outstand the craziness.

Thinking of this makes me tired....typing about this is making me tired, lol. You wanna know what's funny: friend or foe I'm still not moved by any of it. I don't need people to get me shucks I know I'm not for everybody. I hope you know this for yourself as well and live for you and the people that love you. Not for the bystanders waiting to laugh when you trip.

What I want people to understand is that I don't even need to recognize statements, gossip or glares that have no point. No lead in the tip of what you thought your words meant for me. no point, no negativity, no eraser needed.

Didja Eva Think??

So, I have no clue to what I am getting myself into. Although I know it feels better to belong to something tangible than nothing at all. Everything happens for a reason, they say...Hmmm, who woulda thought I would be exploring my life electronically for the world to see. Did you? Well, I didn't have a clue whatsoever. And what you must know is that I am not so technically inclined so I guess this blog will grow as I do.

Now lets explain the "user name", which came out of no where and from no one. All I know is that sometimes in life I feel like I am running a race. Not all the same race and not all at once but always trying to reach something. Some goal, mark, finish line....And lemme tell ya, a sista is tired. It's like a marathon out here in this world or what I like to call "life-force" and I have no choice but to live it. Anywho, so I race in the form or walking, running, crying, listening, going, going, going. Hence teakathon because my life is a never ending story of possible goals to master. I think that if my life wasn't this way I would be bored with me. I don't think I would like me as much as I do now, so thank GOD for giving me something to do in this "life-force". Get used to that phrase because you may see it here and there throughout my post.

O.k. so, happy.(period)healthy.(period)whole.(period), must I say more about that. O.k. o.k., so there are definitions for each of these words that you may have explored at some point in life. If you have, you have saved me the trouble of having to go through them. However, the periods interest me more than the words and you ask why. Those little gracious little specks are the very contradiction to my "thon" or race. Cause see, I have things to do that keep me going, going, going and in the midst of all the whacked out stuff that make me tired or cry to be lazy guess what...I am happy.healthy.whole and I ask myself, "self, didja eva think you where capable of such matter of factivness <---made that up, lol. Ummm, last year I woulda answered no but not nowwwww. So this blog is me free to go as I choose. Without editing, maybe some slang, corniness, happy times, exploration, justification, my2scents, life, music, business..."life-force". Feel free to comment, as I journey on and like it-

Lets Go!!!
