Day 426...Year 2

Life is full of choices, and the choice we make can impact the rest of our lives in very small ways or in very big ways...

23 years ago, around this time my snarky teenage self was making rather crude jokes with one of my best gal pals after track practice... Now before everyone is like, wow she was a runner, keep in mind the only time I will actually run in my life is if there is a will animal chasing me.... I was a shot and discus thrower... But I digress.... While we laughing and joking about this young mans unfortunate clothing choice another young gentleman approached me who I didn't know from Adam and said spoke to me... At that point I could have ignored him and turned away, but I must have been intrigued by his candor and I spoke back and after all of these years we are still speaking... Well most of the time...

BFF and I have been through many highs and many lows... We have been through family births and weddings and unfortunately family deaths...Through arguments and times of separation we have always ended up back together... We have seen each other through thick and thicker...  ;)

When I moved away from home, to travel to a far away place where dreams come true; he took care of me and watched out for me and continues to do so...

Some people think it's strange that we celebrate our friend anniversary or "Friendshipaversary" if you will... But there are dumber things you can celebrate and this one is something truly special... Next to a wedding anniversary, friendship anniversaries show the milestones you have been together as well and it tells you r friend that your friendship is worth celebrating...

So Happy Anniversary BFF... Here's to the years to come...

Love, peace and Forever Friends...

Day 649...Year 2 #RememberingCory

Tonight the TV show Glee memorialized Finn Hudson, who had been played by actor Cory Montieth, until his death this summer... I was a beautiful tribute to the character of Finn... The music was incredibly heart wrenching and I'm sure I am not alone when I say that I cried from the moment Mercedes' music began until the screen went to black at the end of the episode... I admire the writers of Glee for how they handled his passing, by not putting a name to it's cause; despite everyone knowing the actual cause of Cory's death... I know the cast were following their scripts, but I believe their emotions were true... The one thing I wish they would have played was a montage of Finn's character, perhaps with "Don't Stop Believing" as the background music... That was the song that started it all for the show and I believe it is the one everyone that is a fan remembers the most... This show allowed us as fans, a true opportunity to mourn Cory's pa

Day 159 of 366

So, the phonelines are down at my house so no internet but thamlfully my phone is cooperating with me. so this may come as a shock to some but I started seeing an acupuncturists last week to help me with my sinus problems. I can hear some of the critics now saying I'm going against my beliefs but I believe it takes just as much space to trust in eastern medicine as it does in western medicine, besides I believe that God led me to a place that can finally help me feel better without having to take all of those medicines all the time. since december I have been to the doctor every month at least once a month for a sinus infection, in the past week I have slept so well and I am finally breathing better. I thank God everyday for bringing this place to my attention and for allowing me to trust this was the right move for me. what I am learning from this is that when you focus on taking care of 1 party your body many times it will also help another part of your body. just like when y

A new chapter

This has been an incredible year a half since I  began my bariatric journey and it is far from over...that is why it's a journey and not a race because there really is no end. Each day is about the choices we make and how they pan out. I will be the first to say that not all of my choices are correct but I try and learn from those decisions and move forward yet there are still lessons I have to go through over and over before it clicks. One of those being my love of food. You would think that bariatric surgery fixes that but the only thing that fix anything is making a decision to be better. All surgery does is makes your stomach smaller but even that cant fix your problems. Yes I have lost a tremendous amount of weight in a short time but I also had to decide to change how I eat. Yes, my tiny tummy talks to me and tells me what does and doesnt make it happy but if I choose not to listen and listen to my cravings, yes I still have them, I pay the price over and over.... Like
