Ok, well, I tried to put a YouTube video watcher on my blog. It was SUPPOSED to play my favorite videos I have saved in my YouTube account. Well, it doesn't. I was on my blog today...obviously because I'm posting a new post! Anyway, I looked at the list and didn't think any were familiar so I opened one. WOAH!!! It was a sceamo mess of a song. So sorry if any of you played them. The list was supposed to include, oh you know, Chris Tomlin!
Not much going on right now. I am two weeks into getting fit and living healthy. Oh, I could lie and say I've been completely good, but I haven't. I've had a couple pops and a burger. But, I'm getting better. Totally loving making my salads most evenings. And water...I'm becoming a fish again. I love water. Speaking of which, my bottle is empty again! I've had about 40 oz so far and it's only 2:30. That may not be spectacular, but it's a great start. My natural thirst is already back and I can't get enough of the stuff.
I haven't weighed again since I started this journey, but need to. I don't feel as if pound wise I've done anything yet. I'm just working right now primarily on getting the water down me and working on my menu. Can't wait until the sun is still up when I get home of an evening so I can get back to walking.
That's all for now. Hope my fellow blogger buddies are having an exceptional week in the Lord.
Until next time . . .

Wowsers! It's 2010 already
I can't believe it is 2010 already. Seems like yesterday we were all preparing, or at least hearing about, the Y2K scare. Now, 10 years later, we are 13 days into a new decade. Where does the time go? I grew up hearing adults around me saying just that, "Where does the time go?" Time seemed to move at a glacier pace back then, but boy does that change. It's weird for me to say, "I remember twenty years ago.....or twenty-five years ago...." And now some 30 years later I recall so much from years past and can see those years when time seemed to stand still and the years when time was a flash. The flash was turned on almost overnight...one day time was turtle speed and the next it was lightning. It's stayed lightning ever since. But, I guess as long as one is enjoying life and doing what God wants then it is all worth it.
I know I'm several days into the new year, 13 to be exact, but I want to wish all my fellow bloggers a very Happy 2010. I hope it is a great year for all of you and you grow in the desires of the Lord. I'm not big on new year's resolutions, but if I were my top one would be to grow closer to God; remembering where I am right now with God and seeing where I am on 12/31/10 with God. I love God, love growing with Him, and want to pass that love around because His love is abundant!!
In 2010 I'm also promising myself to lose 100 pounds by the end of the year. I know it is a very reachable goal with hard work, dedication, and will power from those potato chips! I balled like a baby last night while watching this season's The Biggest Loser. Dr. H was talking to the people about how old the inside of their body was. There is a girl on there about my age and size who's internal body was 25 years older than her age. That was a real eye opener for me and very frightening thinking about what I'm doing to my body. You know I'm no better than a drunk; we just have different addictions. Dr. H was also talking about how being overweight effects ones family and loved ones. I know my parents are proud of me, but I also know they ache for me because the don't want to out live me or see me suffer from weight related problems. I just have to get up and get moving. I lost 45 pounds in 2008 and I am sorry to say I gained it back in 2009. Before I lost those pounds I thought I felt good. I didn't know just how bad I felt, physically and mentally, until I gained it back. My self esteem is in the gutter and I am having trouble picking it up. I know how I see myself and it terrifies me wondering how others see me. I am usually a pretty happy and upbeat person, but my limitations just snowballed me and brought me to my knees. So, blogger buddies, I'm asking you all to say a little prayer for me. Pray for my esteem and that I stick to it this time! You all are so wonderful!
Until next time . . .
