Hello, world! My name is Shamekia, part foodie, wanna-be health goddess, and pyramid climber! I have vowed to adopt a healthy lifestyle through healthy eating, fitness, and complete honesty about my journey. It is my belief that when we are honest about the bad and good in our lives, we are better able to achieve balance and a positive outlook on life. Although I have lost over 80 pounds so far, I am on a mission to become healthier physically, mentally, and spiritually one step and one day at a time and I want to help motivate you as well. YOUrTruthDiet is an interactive blog dedicated to encouraging you to create small goals in order to build a strong and healthy foundation beyond fitness and eating the “good” stuff.
Most of my posts involve smack talking and humor, but always with the intention to push you, the reader, and myself to reach our goals and live a healthy life.
Are you with me?
