I feel like a lemon being squeezed till you can't get anything else out. Odd I know...but there really isn't any other way to describe this feeling. I'm really hoping that all this squeezing me at this time will make some make some great things. Time will tell....
Not feeling all that great today....

Experiences
Last night was a big success and I feel very honored and humbled to be apart of a great charity event. This opportunity that I was given was overwhelming to me when you step back and think about the ramifications on what the food bank really does. At some point in our lives, we will either ourselves or know someone who does need the food bank. It makes you stop and look at the bigger picture a lot clearer.
The food was great, for those that know me I am not by any means a seafood lover. I actually run the opposite way. Lucky for me about 90% of the dishes last night being served had some sort of seafood in it. Fab! Just great, I thought to myself this isn't going to be good and I'll pass. BUT, but I didn't. I put my big girl pants on and I tried new things. Call me crazy, but it was ok...I won't say good or great. Haven't gotten to that level, but it was ok and I survived. :)
Ths whole experience helped open my eyes to a lot of things. For starters, I realize or should say re started my passion for helping others. Corporate 9-5 jobs don't seem like they fit in my life. Helping people, having a passion for things like last night do. Makes one think and re exam their own lives...that's all I'm saying about that one. :)
Overall it was a successful evening and one that I won't forget for years to come.

WOW
WOW can be well what it is or turned upside down it's MOM. Well this morning my mom said to me that she could really tell that I've lost weight and honestly, that's the best thing I could of heard this morning. For me it was a "woo hoo" moment because when you see someone every day, you don't always realize the changes that they are going through. But it's great when people realize, can't lie-makes one feel pretty good about themselves and what their doing. :)
So tonight's a big night for me. I get to be apart of a pretty great event. The Akron Canton Foodbank is hosting the Taste of the NFL at the Pro Football Hall of Fame and I get to be apart of it. All the money raised goes to help the Foodbank which is a great cause. I never realized how we truely need them in our community till I got a chance to tour the building and learn about what they are doing for our community. Now more then ever people need them. So tonight will be a good way to get on board and help support our area. I just need to stick to my plan and watch what I eat and drink tonight...things like this you could totally get carried away. :)

I haven't forgotten...
I had good intentions to blog over the weekend but as soon as the thought went into my mind it went out just as fast. This weekend we celebrated my dad's 60th birthday. Hard to believe he's 60, but he's in great health. My mom cooked a thanksgiving style meal for his birthday and boy I was stuffed. To the point of being so uncomfortable. Glad to celebrate, but won't eat like that again..the feeling isn't fun what so ever. Saturday was just a normal run around day, but then watched the Ohio State football team pull off a win! Always a plus.
I did a lot of thinking this weekend. There is a lot going on right now that I don't really want to get into at the moment, but it's causing me to step back and make some serious decisions. Decisions that I wish I didn't have to make at the moment, but there really isn't any other choice. I've been in this boat before, actually to many times...i'd like to tie this boat up and not have to jump on anymore. But it's life and these types of things have to be done.
The good thing is that inspite of eating to much for my dad's birthday and bring a little overwhelmed, I was still able to lose more weight. Hitting 100 pounds is closer then it's ever been in my life, I am so excited to get to that point. 9 pounds away from making it a reality. We'll see how long it takes me to get there. :)
