Anyone who follows this blog knows my struggles with weight loss and when Dramatic Weight Loss hit me up late last year, I decided to try it.
I was a bit skeptical about the program at first, so I kept it to myself for a hot second. But blogged my journey when I hit 25lbs and did a video dancing for joy when I hit my 50lb mark (click HERE if you missed that).
I feel off the wagon for a hot second because I couldn’t believe how FINE I was… I mean, shoot I could finally shop in the regular sizes, you couldn’t tell me NOTHING!? But I hopped back on and have so far hit 73lbs down! Woot Woot!
Dramatic Weight Loss is NOT paying me to say any of this, so trust me when I tell you THE PROGRAM WORKS!? I believe in it so much, that I basically donated my time to stand in 6inch heels and tell people about it during For Sisters Only.
And I swear… if one mo person LAUGHS at my before picture!!!!

Real “Housewife” of Atlanta, Kandi Burruss attended last weekend’s For Sister’s Only Event at the Georgia World Congress Center promoting her TAG Boutique as well as her new line of sex toys, that she launched a few weeks ago.

The event was held at the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre in Atlanta and the two posed for a few cute photos backastage as Toni was preparing to accept her induction into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame.
Braxton, a Maryland native, moved to the “A” in the 1990s and while accepting her award, admitted … “I consider myself a peach.”
According to the AJC, Toni’s sisters were originally scheduled to perform in her honor, but apparently backed out at the last minute.
Instead, Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal was given the honors of introducing Toni, and he immediately joked about the camera crew from Toni’s reality show, ?Braxton Family Values,? hanging around backstage.
[Sidebar: I’m sure that means we’ll be hearing more about the drama that occurred during season 2 Braxton Family Values.]
Actor Samuel Jackson was on hand to present director Kenny Leon with his induction, which included a performance by Jasmine Guy and Usher and his prot?g? Justin Bieber presented an award to vocal coach Jan Smith. Continue Reading…

Acting couple David an Tamela Mann were spotted all boo’d up during V-103’s For Sisters Only event last weekend.
The pair are Tyler Perry’s “go-to” couple for just about every movie, play, and television show Perry has produced, and it’s always a pleasure to see the cute couple out and about around Atlanta, where many of TP’s productions are filmed.
David, known for his role as ?Deacon Leroy Brown? and Tamela, his wife of 23 years, who plays Mr. Brown’s daughter Cora, have worked together professionally for over two decades and they love being able to work side-by-side.
In keeping with that trend, the couple has partnered with Roger Bobb, former Executive Vice President of Tyler Perry Studios who abruptly left his position with TP to start his own production company (BobbCat Films), for a new cooking show to be filmed in the Bahamas.
