One Day Too Late

While I was making dessert for my family's New Years Party I was listening to my ipod and a Skillet song came on that really hit me...

here are the lyrics:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Today, I'm gonna try a little harder
Gonna make every minute last longer
Gonna learn to forgive and forget
'Cause we don't have long, gonna make the most of it

Today, I'm gonna love my enemies
Reach out to somebody who needs me
Make a change, make the world a better place
'Cause tomorrow could be one day too late
One day too late, one day too late
 -------------------------------------------------------------------
This year I have fought with people over stupid things, wasted almost an entire year being lazy and not working out, not being the cleanest I could be, not being the best wife I could be..this song made me realize it so much more.  I don't want to die with enemies, or be known as a jerk.  One more fight could push my husband over the edge and make him leave, one more mean word to a friend could cause them to not talk to me ever again.  One more cookie could mean diabetes or other health problems..it just shows that little things really do shape your future. Even if it is just a day.

A few days ago I made a good choice, I changed just that one day and others soon followed.  I am down 3ish pounds from when I started making me 216.9 this morning :) no more 220's!! Day 4.. much easier than day one! I have found a great site www.myfitnesspal.com I have great motivating "friends" that watch what I eat and when I do/do not exercise and they praise me or scold me according to my behavior.  It was just what I needed.  My real friends and family just tell me "You don't need to lose weight, you are beautiful just the way you are" Yes I may have a cute face, but I want a hot body to match.  I don't understand why they can't get that.


well enough ramblings..I have to work out twice today because I was just informed we are having pizza and junk for dinner instead of sandwiches like I was hoping :( maybe I will bring a veggie tray and snack on those..yes good idea. but then that means I have to go to the store too..eek. Gotta run!
