This is a very different post this evening as I am quite upset that I have entrusted someone to help "train me" so I can reach my final goals of losing the weight. Only to be let down, this particular individual I have trained with for several months and we started training with his new business venture. I was excited because I knew I was driven to reach my final goal. Over the last week or so I have had four appointments to meet and train for one hour increments only to find out that my trainer was M.I.A. never texted or called to let me know that he could not make it. He did text me the next morning after the first time he did not show and said " he left out of town last minute and it would never happen again." Only to come this evening and for it to happen yet again! I guess I am just so over the "shady" types of people that work in the fitness industry that love to take advantage of overweight individuals and paint them the picture perfect dream only to flake out on them. Whatever happen to people genuinely giving a shit about others?!? (excuse the cursing, not in a great mood.) In the past year or so I have spend hundreds if not thousands of dollars only to try and become physically fit enough so "society" would lay off my back and for me not to get called those horrible names. Yet even today the forty eight pounds I have lost, is not enough for some people! I say SCREW WHAT SOCIETY THINKS OF BEAUTY!!!! Beauty comes in all shapes and sizes! Tonight really opened my eyes to what I never want to happen again, the thought of being taken advantage of within the fitness industry has literally made me want to be sick and cry!!! Not to mention- BINGE on my Nutrition- one of the most important factors in my life. I won't do it, I won't give these people the satisfaction any more! I know my worth and I won't settle for less any longer, I will pray for this person who has decided to "screw me over" in hopes that this doesn't happen again to another women or man attempting to lose weight!
On a lighter note, my nutritionist Christi with Principle Nutrition is like an ANGEL in disguise and is a supportive peace to my fitness puzzle. Even though I am not currently seeing her right now due to financial hardships she still manages to offer a shoulder and helpful words of encouragement. THANK YOU SO MUCH CHRISTI!!!!!
As for my friends and avid followers - I cannot thank you enough for making me feel better and your kind words means so much to me!!!
Thanks for following!

You can have, be or do anything you want in this life, Ashley. Don't let anyone control the way you feel about yourself (unless , of course, they are complimenting you!) Stay strong and be yourself. Tell Eddy I said, "Yo!"
