In this Week 14 Weigh-In Monday episode, Regina shares a deeply personal update about Hui’s brain tumor journey, seizures, brain surgery, recovery, and the emotional weight of walking through a medical crisis.Hui had three seizures on Tuesday, July 28. Brain surgery followed on July 31. Then on Tuesday, August 4, the staples were removed.Jesus!!!!This episode is also an honest conversation about weight gain during stress. Regina talks about how fear, caregiving, hospital days, lack of sleep, emotions, and trying to hold everything together can affect the body.This is why Rethinking Weight is not just about the scale. It is about the weight we carry physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.Some weeks are about progress. Some weeks are about prayer. Some weeks are about survival. And some weeks, the victory is simply that you kept showing up.Thank you for listening, praying, and walking this journey with us. Also my church is doing a Meal Train for us if you&#39;d like to participate. Thank you in advance - <a href="https://mealtrain.com/6m54wd" rel="nofollow">https://mealtrain.com/6m54wd</a> Body. Mind.

When Everything Changes - Facing a Brain Tumor and Brain Surgery:Sometimes life changes in a single moment. Today, I am sharing something deeply personal. We are facing a brain tumor, an upcoming brain surgery, and all of the emotions, questions, prayers, and decisions that come with hearing news you never expected to receive. This is about Hui - pronounced Hugh - and the journey we are now walking together. We may not know exactly what every day ahead will bring, but we are choosing to move forward with courage, faith, prayer, and hope - one step, one prayer, and one day at a time. This is not simply a conversation about a medical diagnosis. It is about what happens when everything changes, how you continue moving when your heart feels overwhelmed, and how faith carries you through the moments you cannot control. Thank you for praying with us and standing beside us during this journey. Body. Mind. Movement. Truth.Let’s Be Mighty Together! Watch Youtube: https://youtu.be/Zv6PH7xbwJs?si=4Yo5VaxIXpeY22iJ

Later today, I’ll be sharing something much deeper and more personal - a conversation about a brain tumor, what that experience is like, and what we are doing about it. But Today is Weigh-In Monday is here… even though it’s Tuesday! And I’m still showing up. I’m celebrating another step forward on this journey. I’ve released more weight, and I am now 213.4. I feel great, I feel encouraged, and I’m reminded that every choice, every step, and every moment of consistency matters. This journey is not about being perfect. It’s about continuing. It’s about paying attention to my body, telling myself the truth, and choosing to keep moving forward. So stay tuned, because today is about both victory and real life. Body. Mind. Movement.

It’s Day 29 of the Challenge, Day 13 of Momentum, and it’s Weigh-In Monday.Today I weighed in at 214.0, and I feel great.Yes, I’m celebrating the number, but I’m also celebrating how I feel. I feel lighter, stronger, encouraged, and reminded that consistency really does speak.This journey is not just about the scale. The scale gives information, but it does not tell the whole story. It cannot measure every choice, every prayer, every workout, every glass of water, every moment of discipline, or every time I kept going when I could have stopped.That is what Rethinking Weight™ is all about.Body.

Today&#39;s episode takes a closer look at one of the most overlooked sources of added sugar - what we drink.

We are working it out, ya&#39;ll.Today’s message is about more than the workout. It is about discipline, consistency, and the choice to keep showing up even when it is hard.I’m celebrating a win because I have released 14 pounds. This girl is non stop. Not because every day is easy, but because I keep coming back.Sometimes we think we are only working out the body, but we are also working out our habits, our mindset, our excuses, and the part of us that wants to quit too soon.Real progress happens when we stay with it long enough to see the change.Reflection: What in your life are you working out right now, and are you willing to stay with it long enough to see the progress?I’m Regina Williams, The Barefoot Violinist &amp; The RW of Rethinking Weight.Let’s Be-Mighty Together!Come Workout With Me - Zoom Link: BodyInMotion.RethinkingWeight.com12pm cst - Today Saturday

Meet Naomi.She isn&#39;t a real person—but she represents thousands of women.Women who are successful on the outside while quietly carrying grief, responsibility, stress, caregiving, exhaustion, and the pressure to keep going.In this heartfelt episode, Regina Williams introduces Naomi, the woman behind the mission of Rethinking Weight™, and explains why weight is often about so much more than food.If you&#39;ve ever felt like you were carrying the weights of life, this conversation was created for you.Because healing begins when we stop asking, &#34;What&#39;s wrong with me?&#34; and start asking, &#34;What am I carrying?&#34;

Today’s Body In Motion LIVE is about giving your body permission to move with grace.This is not about perfection. This is not about punishment. This is about showing up for the body you have today and remembering that every stretch, every breath, every modified move, and every small yes still counts.Movement can help us release what we have been carrying, wake up our strength, and reconnect with ourselves one moment at a time.Join me Tuesday at 12 PM CST for Body In Motion LIVE.Zoom Link: BodyInMotion.RethinkingWeight.comReflection: What would change if you stopped waiting for the perfect body and started honoring the one you have today?I’m Regina Williams, The Barefoot Violinist &amp; the RW of Rethinking Weight.Let’s Be-Mighty Together!Watch Youtube: https://youtu.be/JblfQ30ViIU

It&#39;s Weigh-In Monday, and this week the scale showed a 3-pound gain.But is the scale telling the whole story?In this episode, Regina shares why progress cannot be measured by one number alone. From building muscle to creating healthier habits, some of the most important victories happen beyond the scale.If you&#39;ve ever felt discouraged by a weigh-in, this conversation will remind you that progress comes in many forms and every healthy choice matters.Reflection:What victories have you been overlooking because they didn&#39;t show up on the scale?

Today is not just about working out.It is about listening to the body, reconnecting with the body, and reminding yourself that you are still here.Sometimes our bodies carry more than weight. They carry stress, disappointment, grief, pressure, responsibility, and all the things we never say out loud.So today, we are not moving to punish the body. We are moving to come back to it.A step counts.A stretch counts.A breath counts.A small yes still counts.Join me today, Saturday, at 12 PM CST for Body InMotion LIVE.Zoom Link: BodyInMotion.RethinkingWeight.com Reflection:What has your body been carrying that movement may help you begin to release?I’m Regina Williams, The Barefoot Violinist &amp; the RW of Rethinking Weight.Let’s Be-Mighty Together!Watch on Youtube: https://youtu.be/nQyOVh8QH4Q?si=nv2e9B6iZ9WzjKz_

Day 19 of the 30-Day Challenge and Day 3 of the Momentum Challenge is about adjusting without quitting.Sometimes life changes the way we thought we were going to show up. Our body may feel off. Our mind may be tired. Pain, stress, or injury may shift the plan.But that does not mean the song is over.As a violinist, I know when one string is off, you do not throw the whole violin away. You pause, listen, retune the string, and keep playing.That is the message for today.If I had to sit down, I’m still showing up.If I had to slow down, I’m still showing up.If I had to change the movement, I’m still showing up.I changed the plan.I did not break the promise.Reflection: Where have you been hard on yourself because you had to adjust?Be-MIGHTY in the midst of adjustment.

Today’s message is about the part of progress we don’t always talk about.Progress sounds beautiful when we talk about results, healing, weight loss, stronger bodies, better relationships, growing businesses, new doors, and answered prayers. But before progress shows up looking pretty, sometimes it first shows up uncomfortable.There is a kind of pain that comes with growth, discipline, stretching, correction, waiting, starting over, and not giving up when everything in you wants to stop.This is not about ignoring injury, staying in harmful situations, or pretending pain does not matter. This is about learning the difference between pain that is destroying you and discomfort that is developing you.BYOB means Bring Your Own Body, your own story, your own process, and your own willingness to keep moving with wisdom.Reflection: What part of your progress have you been resisting because it feels uncomfortable?I’m Regina Williams, The Barefoot Violinist &amp; The RW of Rethinking Weight.Let’s Be-Mighty Together!Watch Video: Come Workout With Me Today - Live: Zoom Link: ArmsInMotion.RethinkingWeight.com Come Workout With Me Today - Live: Zoom Link: ArmsInMotion.RethinkingWeight.com
