Can you believe its been 3 years since the debut of Troy Show? It seems like just yesterday I began this journey with all of you. I have been blessed to talk to news makers, controversial Access Hollywood to get the latest gossip on the Oscars and we teamed up with Yahoo! to reveal the biggest searches of the
figures, and celebrities. This past season we went behind the scenes with
year.

We did things a little bit differently than in the past and things grew tremendously. I went on a 30 day challenge to loose weight and I am proud to report that I have stuck too it. If you were to have told me that I would be out every Saturday morning with the "exercise people" I would have said no way. 

If there was one thing I learned in season two it is to NEVER say "no way." After two years of trying to make it work, I had a sit down interview with the President of OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network Sheri Salata. It was our biggest interview to date in my opinion. Who can forget Palmer Williams Jr. from the hit OWN show "Love thy Neighbor?" He was one of my faves as well. 

I am excited to see what season 3 brings on The Troy Show. This season we are gonna break loose a little bit. Let's make a date ok? How does September 15th sound? I think you'll find that there's a whole lot of life's lessons still to learn. The party has just begun!

Sincerely, 

For most people wining a championship or a medal is a rare occasion. Its a moment to be celebrated and cherished forever. Carissa Moore is an exception to that. Not only has she done the rare thing of winning a championship but she is the youngest person to ever do it. In fact she has won 2 world titles since and is going for her third.

2 time World Championship Surfer Carissa Moore is here!

Carissa shares her secrets to success and how she stays in top shape all year long. How does she handle the shark infested waters of being in a male dominated world? Carissa speaks candidly in this all new Troy show.

I cannot believe 30 days is over just like that. It is amazing how time can fly when you are having fun. This challenge provoked me in so many ways. Many of which you will see on camera on the Troy Show Reality Special airing on Kenosha Channel 14 on  Time Warner Cable this May.

This big question is how much weight did I loose? That is the measuring stick. I lost about 10 pounds as of this writing the entire month. After the initial burst of weight loss, I started loosing 1-2 pounds per week.

There is more to the story however. I didn't run around or exercise as a kid. I was never involved in sports. I was always book smart, not physical. The most I moved my body was walking to and from my car.

So when I walked into the gym, I was frightened. I had to face the very fear that kids teased me about. It was like walking in the doors of high school all over again. This time however the results were different.

Each day and each week I built muscle and started to look more favorably on working out. It started becoming less of a diet, and more of a lifestyle change.

I love the gym now. I plan on becoming an active member and to continue the healthy eating habits I have learned throughout.

I want to thank Anytime Fitness and Trainer Sam Sackett. Who with his patience never gave up on me. I call him the miracle worker fitness trainer! I want to thank Dr. Susan Smith Jones. Her best selling book "Walking on Air: Your 30-day Inside and Out Rejuvenation Makeover", kicked off this challenge. If you haven't heard our 3 part audio series, you should. It will get you moving as well.

A big shout out goes to Target for allowing our cameras in the store on such short notice. They blocked off the area for me! How cool is that?

The takeaway from all of this is that in order to be our best selves we have to face our fears. It doesn't matter how many days, weeks, months, or years you have told yourself the contrary. We become so comfortable in fear it holds us hostage.

Today on April 30th, 2014! I am free! May the Journey Continue!

Hey everybody! Sometimes you cannot post your feelings in 140 characters or less so here it goes. The first 15 days of the challenge have been amazing. I have lost weight. About 6 pounds as of this writing. That is after my first full week at the gym. 6 Pounds in one week. Not bad.

I am eating less and still getting full and feel healthier and strong. Anytime Fitness, Nutrex-Hawaii and Susan Smith Jones have been amazing!

If you  haven't heard our 3-part audio series based on Susan Smith Jones' hit book "Walking on Air: Your 30-Day Inside and Out Rejuvenation Makeover", I sure hope you do. There is even a special offer just for YOU.

To be honest I doubted myself. I made a promise to you the Troy Show audience and to myself. I wasn't sure I would stick to it. I have and I am actually doing ok. Both are shockers to me.

I did this challenge for myself. I wanted to feel better about myself. I graduate college this year. I always say that if you do things for other people you can't be successful. Your support has meant the world.

I am training 3 days a week doing cardio and weight training with our tremendous partner Anytime Fitness! Our cameras literally showed the first time I walked into a gym, and it will air worldwide.. It's crazy.

The first time I left the Gym, my legs hurt so bad! Now, I look forward to going to the gym. Not to brag but the weights are the easiest part. Its the damn stretching that is a pain in the you know what. I am so use to sitting behind a desk, or on a stage talking.

It wasn't all pretty as you will see on The Troy Show Reality Special coming this May. The camera caught some of my most intimate moments.

I posted on Facebook how I regretted letting the cameras into my life so much. You'll see why this May.

The next 15 days are the beginning of a new life for me. I look forward to what ensues.

Troy McDonald is no longer President of Kenosha Community Media the station that was the first home of The Troy Show on TV.

"I can report that after 2 years of service to Kenosha Community Media I am no longer President or a board officer. I am grateful and honored to have served in the capacity that I did. The Troy Show and other shows I produce have consumed more of my daily time and I was unable to continue my duties as assigned. It was not fair to you the viewer or myself to work in that manner. 

The Troy Show on TV and other shows I produce including Back To Basics Wrestling  will continue to air on Kenosha TV Time Warner Cable Channel 15-14 and other platforms to be announced. 

I will also continue developing new shows as I am always looking for creative ideas that enlighten viewers to live their ultimate lives. I am grateful for the time I was with KCM and feel blessed to have served Kenosha. I wish the organization the best as it figures out how to adapt in our new digital world."

Bullying Is a pandemic among young people today. It goes beyond the playground and lasts continuously on social media and online. It is embarrassing sometimes for kids to tell their parents that something is wrong. Here are 5 ways you can address it without pushing them away. 

Don't make the situation worse than it is

A bullied child wants to feel strong do not remind them how difficult their situation is. 

Do not go "Madea" at the School

If you have ever seen Tyler Perry's "Madea" movies you know that she is loud and causes a scene! As tempting as it maybe to run up to the school acting crazy for your children, your child will resent you. The craziness can also make the situation worse. Go professionally and courteously to staff members to solve problems. 

Don't expect other parents to agree with you

Everyone hopes that parents can "work it out" but that is simply not the case. In some cases it is the exact opposite. On a past episode of The Troy Show a parent once encouraged the bullying of another student. 

Not every sign of bullying is a sign that Your Child is being bullied

Just because your child is late for class or grades drop doesn't necessarily mean that they are being bullied. We encourage you to ask first before assuming its bullying.

Be an active parent

The number one thing a parent can do to allow an open channel for communication is to be an active parent. Excited to learn what they do every day, not just in kindergarten. Loving your child unconditionally is key. Creative an environment where they come to you. 

Troy recently spoke at the Gateway Technical College Martin Luther King Jr Event. If you missed his speech, check it out here. Fast forward to about the 27 minute mark.

 

My company TMC Media Enterprises has teamed up with local wrestling federation Back To Basics Wrestling to produce a weekly show called "BTBW Adrenaline." Here are 5 reasons why I know you'll love the show.

Tune in to BTBW Adrenaline on Time Warner Cable Kenosha Channel 14 Fridays at 6:30pm and Saturday mornings at 10:00am! 

1. Its similar to WWE
If you have ever loved the "WWE" (formerly known as the WWF), then you will LOVE BTBW Adrenaline.

2. It is drama personified
Friends turn on friends, enemies try to one up each other. From the locker room to the ring you never know what drama lies ahead..and who will be the victim.

3. Its family friendly with attitude
BTBW Adrenaline is family friendly but it has spunk. If you remember Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock you'll love the characters on BTBW.

4. You never know whats going to happen
Surprises are abound on Adrenaline. You never know what will happen next and you will be glued every second.

5. They love their fans 
BTBWrestling has been holding fan meet and greets before it was cool. BTBW has always put their fans first using social media to keep in touch with fans...and haters.

Here's a clip of Anthony on Hotel Impossible

Its almost the middle of January and by now most of us have changed or modified our goals for the New

Year. It doesn't have to be this way. Here are 5 simple ways to stick to your resolutions once and for all. 

1. Create Reasonable goals

The number one reason goals fail is because people do not create reasonable goals. You can't loose 50 pounds in 2 weeks. Set a goal of 1-3 lbs a week and go from there. 

2. Don't let others create your goals

Many people make their goals based on what family and friends expect of them. That is a big no-no. Never allow others to tell you how to life your life. You wont succeed. 

3. Have an accountability partner 

Have your best friend or spouse hold you accountable for your actions. They will be honest and real with you and want you to succeed just as much as you do. 

4. Consistency is the best policy 

Sometimes its not the most extreme workout that wins the race, its simply being consistent. Agreeing to do the work to get to your goal and staying motivated will get you that much closer to success. 

5. Create a reward system

Make working out or goal setting like a game. If you workout three days a week for two hours allow yourself to buy a certain item. The bigger the goal the bigger the reward. 

If you haven't engaged with the The Troy Show before, now might be a good time. American Idol Judge and Country Music Superstar Keith Urban recorded a short message for the fans of the growing Troy Show. Keith took time away from touring, and hosting one of America's favorite shows to make this happen!. Don't forget to watch Keith on American Idol starting January 15th and 16th at 8/7pm Central only on Fox!
