Sometimes I wonder if all my teaching, preaching and nagging about exercise and healthy living and eating on here just gets skipped over for the more dramatic stuff. And like your mom, you close the door and turn up Cee Lo Green to drown out my yapping on the other side of it.

Turns out, some my kids listen to me. Sade Ma’at Chis, was listening back when I started the CLICK challenge, and gave those tips about smoothies. In fact, she listened so well, she lost 40 pounds.

“After ending a long term relationship with my high-school sweetheart, I decided to start exercising to relieve stress and feel better about myself. The weight was coming off super slow because I was still eating the same foods. When I read your different health posts I started experimenting with smoothies and the different supplements you mentioned and it worked. I will be really happy when all of the weight is off. I have a long way to go but my health is improving,” said Sade.

Here’s Sade before:

Sade 40 pounds lighter:

Woo hoo, Sade!!

BB&W: What supplements worked for you?

Sade: I like the flax seeds, whey protein, MSM, and acai berry.

BB&W: How has all this weight loss and healthy living made a difference with you?

Sade: I had pain in my ankles; but after losing that initial chunk of weight, I don’t have pain in my joints anymore. Eating healthy has improved my complexion and the MSM is definitively helping with my hair growth.

BB&W: Great! How’s all this making you feel?

Sade: I feel more confident since working out definitely.

Sade, you’ve make my heart swell, and for that I’m going to arrange for you to get a free canister of CLICK and…a free CLICK crystal bling shirt. I’ve got one too, so you and me can be twinsies.

Congrats, Sade! Keep up the great work, and here’s to 2012 being your knock out year.

Congrats Sade, you look awesome!!! I do have a question and this is for for everyone. A lot of us have and are losing weight. As you get smaller, how do you remove the "fat girl" filter from your eyes and mind? I've lost about the same amount of weight as you, yet I look in the mirror and still see a fat girl. How did you become comfortable with your new body?

Absolutely impression! I love happy stories. Just to hear that your joints and ankles are no longer hurting is wonderful. It can only get better now, those initial pounds will just boost your confidence and being featured will surely keep you at it. All the best for 2012.

Chrissssssssssssssss,

Why doesn't the auto-spellcheck work with Livefyre?

Whoooo, ya lookin' good girl. I should tell mommy dearest about this stuff, she's really struggling to lose weight. She has a swollen ankle so its hard for her to walk and run, all she can really do is stretch. So maybe I'll tell her about this stuff. Congrats Sade!

Good for you Sade!! You look fab!

My husband just joined Weight Watchers so if it works for him, I may give it a go as well.

And Christelyn, we all know that your blog is a force for good. Keep up the great work!

We hear and see. But you know some stuff is just bound to get more commentary than other posts.

Also, there's not too much you can say in reply when someone makes you a good suggestion. The best to do is to take the advice and run with it!

Woot Woot! You are beautiful and congratulations Sade!!!

I know that Christelyn has inspired me to get back on track with my fitness and diet. I have slacked with life's challenges and the videos and recipes reminded me how important I am. I am encouraged to return back to my beloved weekly ritual of the farmers market and even (gasp) cooking from scratch (I swore those days were over in a sort of rebellion).

I used to crave working out and Christelyn is bringing that back.....THANK YOU! I may even take some before or after picts after I take off this added 15 and get toned up, lol.
