"Roller Coaster"
You control me.
You're a RULER, a DICTATOR,
an ASSHOLE, a RELATOR.
You're a SHOULDER, strong CHEST,
warm BREATH, wet KISS.
TIMID, I peek
you're NEVER there
My walls fall, BREAKING down,
and you are EVERYWHERE.
YOU taunt me from every CORNER.
I feel TEARS then I LAUGH
I feel ANGRY then SAD
Before I know what's happening
again, I LAUGH.
YOU have this hold
a grip so TIGHT
It's PAINFUL
It HURTS
It ACHES
It BURNS
Just when I think I'm DEAD.
It's COOL
It's REFRESHING
CALMING
HEALING
I shake my HEAD
and once again EVERYTHING
is NORMAL.
You're a RULER, a DICTATOR,
an ASSHOLE, a RELATOR.
You're a SHOULDER, strong CHEST,
warm BREATH, wet KISS.
I weaken for YOU.

Me vs Me
Hello friends,
Unfortunately, I'm sad to say that the reason it has been so long since my last blog post is because I fell off of my get healthy train, but as of today I've re-boarded with a new partner. Yep, that's right, my hubby has finally decided to get on the train with me. It means a lot that he's making a life style change with me because it's extremely difficult to keep it up when you're doing it by yourself. I've been searching pinterest high and low for low calorie, low glycemic recipes. I'm trying to bring a variety of foods into our new lifestyle because I know the hubs will get very tired of eating the same things.If any of you have delicious low-cal or low glycemic recipes, please send them our way. (I prefer fairly simple recipes that don't take too long to prep and cook considering the limited amount of time we have for dinner, baths, and bed after work each day)
I've started taking a Zumba class 1 time a week at my dad's karate studio. It is so much fun!!! It's a really amazing workout without the feeling of it being a work out. I feel like I'm just dancing around having a great time with some amazing girls. My husband takes this opportunity on Wednesdays to do some weight training while watching his wife shake it and sweat to death (sexy huh). As of today, I've started Jillian Michael's 30 day shred, which I have been told has worked wonders for many people. I have high hopes, as I know my worst enemy through all of this is and always will be...ME.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again..I think I can, I think I can, I think I can. I know I will reach my goal one day, as my assistant manager always says "little by little" we'll get there, and now I have my biggest supporter on my team!!!!! So excited for this journey to begin again...
