I should have been a stronger man..should have been your solider!
Hey, its been awhile. I’m tired its been a long eventful day. So heres my lastest journey woahs.
So saterday I did a 5k for junior diabeties. We rasied over 35,000 for the cause! It was really great my sister and neice was there with me. My neice was in her stroller but she didnt like that so she walked some but like a mile into the 3miles she just found some grass and sat her little butt right down. She was tired and over walking, she didnt want her stroller. So I felt bad for her and I carried her the rest of the way. She’s 32pounds, 5lbs more than the weight I lost. My arms hurt after awhile but she had fallin asleep so I just kept holding her and going. I was amazed by how much weight I have lost. Like I really felt it. I know how far I’ve come in this journey and now Im building the strenght to push on. It was a fantastic experience. I felt great about myself after.
Today I was walking around the grocery store. I was thinking of what I need. I’ve always bought the groceries for healthy living..or so I thought. Non fat, Low fat, Low sugar, light, fit. I never eat all the things I buy I let a good portion go to waste because I find fast food more appealing. So today I decided life isnt about low fat or no fat or low carb. Living a normal life is eating healthy by eating what you want in moderation. So instead of sugar free cookies, I bought cinnamon graham crackers and instead of non fat ice cream I got something coffee with more fat but the same amount of calories. Fat is good in moderation! I use to always think oh no fat! But milk fat now and again is okay. Im going to learn to eat waht I want when I want in moderation. Its a step in the right direction.
Today I got up and faced my aniexty head on. I havent been to one of my classes in a long time because of it. I know the professor and I know he will pass me as long as I keep coming and try to catch up with everyone. My heart was racing when I walked up to the door this morning and I kept my eyes low feeling people watch me walk in but I did it. I didnt let it defeat me. I also went and paid a big chunk of the buy out lease for my old place. When my sister gets home in a bit we will go on our walk/jog.
Everyone of us is going through our own individual struggles and some days its hard to see the light of the tunnel. It so amazing how simple fitting into a pair of old pants, walking into a class room, carrying someone you love to the finish line or buying those chips you never got before because you know you can restrain yourself can make you feel so much stronger than you were. So much more, so much further than yesterday. I look forward to my tomorrows.

Lyrics-
Oh, this is the start of something good,
Don’t you agree?
I haven’t felt like this in so many moons,
You know what I mean?
And we can build through this destruction,
As we are standing on our feet.
So, since you want to be with me,
You’ll have to follow through,
With every word you say.
And I, all I really want is you,
You to stick around.
I’ll see you everyday,
But you have to follow through.
You have to follow through.
These reeling emotions they just keep me alive,
They keep me in tune. Oh, look what I’m holding here in my fire,
This is for you.
Am I too obvious to preach it?
You’re so hypnotic on my heart.
So, since you want to be with me,
You’ll have to follow through,
With every word you say.
And I, all I really want is you,(for) you to stick around. I’ll see you everyday,
But you have to follow through.
The words you say to me are unlike anything that’s ever been said.
Ahh, and what you do to me is unlike anything that ever been.
Am I to obvious to preach it? You’re so hypnotic on my heart,
So, since you want to be with me. You have to follow through, with every word you say. And I, all I really want is you, (for) you to stick around. I’ll see you everyday.
So, since you want to be with me, you’ll have to follow through with every word you say.
And I, all I really want is you, (for)you to stick around.
I’ll see you everyday, but you have to follow through. You have to follow through. You’re gonna have to follow.
Oh, this is the start of something good.
Don’t you agree?
