None of us got where we are solely by
pulling ourselves up by our bootstraps.
- Thurgood Marshall
I can't believe I have been on this journey for 18 days already! It really has been an awesome journey so far. I have had some major struggles during this time and I just keep picking myself up by my bootstraps and keep on going. I have NOT fallen off this journey at all and I have kept on track! I am really proud of myself to say the least.
Usually when I am stressed, I really eat, and I have really struggled with eating at all this week. It's almost weird for me, not eating is not realy an issue, until now, I don't know what I have done to my brain with being so motivated.
I have not been sleeping well the last 2 nights, I'm hoping I can sleep tonight. I have had a lot on my mind and heart and have decided that I have done my best, and it's all up to God now. He has my path picked for me already. I'm just going to be true to who I am and I am not going to worry about things as much! Life will continue to pass me by, if I don't stop and just enjoy what I have and who is in my life.
So, my dilema was my boyfriend is unable to come to my company party on Saturday & I was really disappointed to say the least. Work obligations always get in the way but that's ok! Because I was going to be set up with my coworkers boyfriends friend, just to go to the party with. That wasn't going to work out, so my best friend Joe is going with me, and I am elated that we will be going together! This is going to be the best time ever!!!! I am so excited! We are matching out clothes tomorrow to make sure we coordinate well! He's so stinking cute and I couldn't have gone with a better person. Joe, rearranged his schedule, canceled a dinner, and changed it to a lunch, and now he is taking me! Thank you Joe! You never let me down! :) I'm so glad you are one of my best friends!!! You & your friendship mean more to me & Lexi than you could ever know! She said, "Oh Mom, you two are going to have a blast!" And she's right, we are!!! What started out as a huge disappointment turned out to be awesome. There is going to be so much dancing and so much partying going on! I can't wait!!!! It's at the Angus Barn Pavillion & I have never been there, but it is a really awesome place.
So, let me get to my food! Today, I had a banana for breakfast, and apple for late morning snack, then we had ANOTHER LUNCHEON and I had a very small ceasar salad! Let me just say, they got food from Biagi's Italian Restaurant! I could not believe all the food they had, and when It was time for me to have lunch, there was barely any salad, but I had some, a very small amout I must add, I was really disappointed because there was such great food there that I Coudln't eat, and all I wanted was a hearty salad! I passed on all the bread, pasta & all that other stuff. But I passed on it & my friend Julie gave me a few pieces of grilled chicken to throw in my very small salad! Then for dinner, I had a baked potato and a burger, without the bun for dinner, I met my best girl friend Kris for dinner since Lexi was at youth group, it was fun, we have not seen eachother for a while, and really have missed our girl talks! Thank you Kris! :)
Next week I have class from Monday through Thursday, and I know they will order crap for us for lunch, so I called HR today and said I can't eat grain, can you please order me a salad each day! LOL I don't think they were too happy, but I don't want to be left out, if they are paying for lunch, and this is my lifestyle, so I asked! I figured it couldn't hurt!
Well I am really beat. Going to finish watching American Idol and then go relax! I hope everyone has an incredibly blessed evening!
Godspeed!
