Tomorrow night (Wednesday) at 10/9c on TLC’s FAMILY BY THE TON, Naomi has been on her liquid diet for two weeks and it has been the hardest thing she has ever done. After almost giving in to stress and quitting, she decided to stick with it. Now it's time for her to finally learn if she has lost twenty pounds and can have the weight loss surgery. Drew is also on his diet but, after a successful first weigh-in, decides that maybe he doesn't have to stick to the liquid diet as closely as the doctors say. Then, after the sudden death of a loved one, Chitoka does some serious soul-searching when her weight causes her to be unable to attend the funeral. She decides she can no longer live life trapped on her bed. Chitoka works with a physical trainer and challenges herself to walk to her living room. After much pain and struggle, will she be able to walk again?

We will be watching the show live at 10e/9c on TLC! 

Blingy LUV,

View the video below to find out why Naomi is having second thoughts about the surgery.....

Tomorrow at 10/9c, TLC premieres brand-new series FAMILY BY THE TON. Matriarch "Mama" Beverly's family is just like any other family, except they are all morbidly obese. Her daughter Naomi weighs in at nearly 400 pounds, and her weight has kept her from moving forward with life, especially as she considers starting a family of her own. Then, Naomi's cousin Chitoka has been bedbound for years. She cooks, eats, bathes and does all day-to-day activities while barely moving from one spot. Realizing her bed has become a prison, Chitoka is in dire need of a change. Finally, cousin Drew is dangerously obese and now finds it painful to move around. As the sole caretaker for his elderly mother, he realizes if something were to happen to him, she would have no one to care for her. In order to inspire the rest of the family to turn their lives around and get healthy, Mama Beverly undergoes gastric bypass surgery, but complications strike fear into the family. All three cousins must come to terms with what that means to their own weight loss plans... before it's too late.

Blingy Greetings,

If you know me... Shavonne P Owens aka Konfident Miss Bling... You know I love me some Mary J. Blige! The creation of my entertainment report, "The Blingy 411" was inspired my girl MJB!
So, we know about her going through her divorce with Kendu. Everyone was saying, "Awwww mannnn! You know Mary is about to come out with a fire album!" LOL! True enough, she came through for the nation with her new single, "Thick of it"! Mary didn't come to play, she came to slay! Ok? LOL 

BlingItOrStingIt?

I say BLING IT BABY!!!! I Blingy LUV this song!!!!! 
This room was full of melanin from her brown and even skin tone to the bronzed mirrored room she shot this video in with that blingtastic gold top she was wearing. Also, MJB represented for NY with her Yankees snapback as she showed her amazing figure and she "flickbanged" her blonde "Ike Turner bob" which was superfly!!!! The room was shimmery gold and she made sure she included her classic dance moves as she did shimmy or 10 across the room a few times throughout the video! 

#Blingy411- Did you know?

Did you know that Jazmine SUllivan wrote this song? Yes! She penned "Thick Of It" and as of today it became Mary's fifth No. 1 on the Adult R&B songs (Billboard)! Mary's album  Strength of A woman will debut later this year! "Thick of it" is the warm up anthem for the album to get us prepared for what she will deliver on these tracks for 2016-17.


Mary J. Blige's 'Thick of It' Has Fastest Climb to No. 1 in Over 20 Years on Adult R&B Songs.
Congratulations Mary! It's another moment in time where she has broken a record in music literally! Check the video out below for yourself and comment your blingy thoughts on this song!
