The Birth of REALNESS


What is REALNESS?

REALNESS is about living a life as my Lord deems, not as my flesh wants. REALNESS is about accepting the love He so wonderfully gives to me although I don't deserve it. REALNESS is opening your heart to love Him and letting Him love others through you. REALNESS is about seeking the heart of God (His will), not just His hands (His blessings). REALNESS is not sweating the small stuff. Life is too short to waste one moment in anger. Everyone has a story. Is your story real or not? Mine is REAL. My story is that I have been Redeemed Eternally and Authentically Loved from day one of accepting Christ as my Lord and Savior. Don't you want to be REAL?
...We love because he first loved us... 1 John 4:19

WHO AM I?

My photo
I am so blessed to be living in the wonderful state of TEXAS! I am a Texas Exes (I'll pause here for all LONGHORNS to “Hook 'em Horns!”). I was born/ raised in the Big D and I love my hometown. I have been wonderfully blessed to follow my passion by helping those living with diabetes. I attend the best church in the metroplex under the awesome direction of Dr. Tony Evans. Praise God for those who walk under the Lord's direction and not in the ways of this world!

Introducing the Real FAT Dietitian

Okay, I know what you are thinking. Is she really a dietitian? Why yes, I am. Why am I putting myself on display? Because dietitians eat too. Yes, we are nutrition experts, but we still struggle. I just had to say it. I am one of a few African American dietitians in this business and believe me I questioned the Lord repeatedly about this calling. I recall sitting in class thinking, "I am the largest person in this room!" but I was also thinking "My mom wouldn't listen to anyone in this room." She'd fix them a sandwich! :-) Fast forward more years than I care to say and here I am....the F.A.T. Dietitian. Full, Free-spirited, Fabulous, and always First-Class. Absent-minded (slightly), Arrogant (a bit), and Authenticated (my origins are supported by unquestionable evidence: see THE BIBLE). Tenacious, Talented, and Teeming with uniqueness,(or maybe I'm just peculiar, uncommon, unusual: see 1 Peter 2:9-10). Anyway, that's me! Can you say FFFFAAATTT!?!!!!!!!!! So what is this part of my blog all about? Well, I have decided to chronicle my own weight loss journey. I have seen the scales tipping and now I have 35 pounds to lose. I'll keep you posted every step of the way and I'll be sure to post pictures. Being F.A.T......I don't mind......being unwell, well, that's unacceptable.
