One day I dream of having a stress-free life!
Oh, man, would that be nice!
Hell yes, I'd love to live like a queen!
That is my ultimate dream!
I know that it is the little things in life that are most important.
Having a little extra money would make enjoying them more potent!
To travel the world as a family,
Would be living the dream like Disney!
Being able to give your kids all their desires,
Nothing could make me higher.
Oh, and I would give some to charity.
I am more than willing to spread the winning spree!
I would love having resources to help others,
Such as all the unwed mothers.
A little to the church I'd give too,
Giving to God is what I'd do!
Let me win the lottery!
That would mean everything to me!

Show Me the Way
Lost in the dark,
myself I find falling a part.
Where is the light to point my direction?
Has it been extinguished without my recollection?
How does your inner spirit, your sense of self, disappear?
What does it take to see it all clear?
A free mind, a free heart,
That would be the way to start.
How do you release the demons in your soul?
Please tell me where I need to go?
It's like being lost in a foreign land.
I need someone to take my hand.
Walk with me,
Help me find the light,
Then everything will be alright.
It will be then that it all makes sense.
I'll know how my life must be spent.

Weight Loss Update
I got on the scale this morning and got a huge surprise! I have lost 5 lbs. I'm hoping when I get on tomorrow that it doesn't go up again, but it probably will. My goal is to exercise more next week. Starting tomorrow I plan to hit the gym! I can do this!
I did eat kind of bad today. I had a poached egg sandwich for breakfast, but didn't eat it all. For lunch I chowed down on a sub with two packs of mayo. For supper Jeff and I went to a Mexican restaurant. I only ate half my food and had one Corona. Tonight I've had a diet dessert that I made from sugar-free ingredients and three half glasses of wine. The good thing is that I'm hardly hungry ever.

How the Diet/Healthy Lifestyle is Going
Well, I have been keeping up with the eating part, but I haven't been back in the gym yet. I'm still down 3 lbs. I have been eating very little during the day, and then eating a bigger meal at suppertime. I have cut down to no pop at all. However, I have been drinking energy drinks lately - AMP and Rockstar. These are both good and bad. Good because of all of the vitamins and herbs in them, bad because they have lots of calories. Actually, the Rockstar I have been drinking is sugar free, just remembered! Yeah!
I've still been doing the Hydroxy-Cut and CLA. I've been taking Abdominal Cuts, which is CLA and GLA and some other things, like sesame seed oil. A lot of celebrities use this, such as Kendra Wilkinson and Trista from the Bachelorette. A friend let me borrow some from her. They are somewhat expensive, on sale right now for $44.99, and usually I think $48.99.
The only exercising I've been doing faithfully are resistance band exercises for my tendonitis in my shoulders and tricep. I have to do them every other day or I have pain. I also have to do stretches for my shoulders twice a day. I wish I could walk on the treadmill at least every other day too! I guess I need to make time to do this, no matter how tired I am. It has been freezing outside and I haven't felt like going out once I get home.
I have been drinking lots of water also. My husband bought some water and I was drinking it until I started having some digestive issues with it. Now I get water out of our fridge at home and put it in the water bottles.
With cutting down what I'm eating, I found that I have to be careful because on day I didn't eat enough and by night time at work I thought I was going to faint. Not good. It's hard to eat when you're not hungry though.

New Year's Resolution
On Tuesday, January 4th, I started my New Year's resolution. I have started eating lots of fruit and drinking loads of water. I actually lost 3 lbs in the first day. It really works if you eat small amounts every two hours it increases your metabolism. I actually did this once before and lost 35 lbs. I also am taking some supplements - Hydroxy Cut and CLA from GNC. I went back to the gym for the first time one Wednesday night after work. I walked 2 miles on the treadmill. I will keep it up. I have about 45 to 50 lbs to lose.
I thought I would really miss drinking Mountain Dew, but I really don't. I have drank some diet pop, but I really have cut down to about 2 cans a day.
I will try to update my blog to let you know how it's going and to let you know I'm still doing it! I'm hoping to be bikini-ready this year. :) The last time I was in shape was two years ago.
