Feeling your best? I am really striving to find it, I want to be around for my family & be able to have my grand daughter to get a chance to know me without seeing me sick and used up. I think when you hit your fifties you really wake up to the fact that it's now or never no matter what you are hoping for! You have to face facts that if by now you haven't become wealthy you probably won't unless someone leaves you a bundle, If you are not feeling well it's only going to get worse as you age ect. It's do or die time literally and figuratively. I still play the mega million game from time to time in hopes of winning - not so much to have money (which would be nice) but to be able to help out my kids when they need money. It was so fun when I had come into so money a few years ago being an executor of a will. I had a nice chunk of cash that I could help my son buy his first home, Now that felt sooooo good! That's what I'm talking about, if you have extra cash you can help others and it relives your brain of the stress of the "What if's" that pop up all the time in life. My daughter says all the time that if I were to win a million dollars I would spend it all, and she is I probably right. I LOVED being able to take my family all out for dinner and not have to look at the prices on the menu it made the evening so enjoyable. I pray one day God will grant my wish to win a chunk of money so before I pass on I again can enjoy the feeling of giving, but until then we will live barely from one pay check to another. As for feeling your best, I am still struggling with that! I have been adding a ton of fruit to my diet, watermelon, cherries & grapes. I have been trying to get back into the swing of eating my nuts while I watch my Netflix movie at night (but I have to be honest with you my teeth are pretty bad and it hurts to eat nuts - Note to my younger self: Take care of your teeth!). Today I had a major headache, not sure if it is from it being so dam hot & humid here in Florida or maybe it is from my cutting back on chocolate. So you know what I did? I had some chocolate! I know, I could kick myself in the pants, but I am so afraid of headaches. I get migraines and they scare the hell out of me - I will do ANYTHING not to let a regular headache get to the migraine stage! I really wish I would have been following along with this blog last year when I was losing all of the weight on what I was eating to successfully lose the weight. be I am really struggling with it. This morning I weighed in at 144.8 - Dam : ( I have my library getting me a book called "Diet Cure", I am really looking forward to reading it, I'll let you know what tips & ideas I get from it.
Until Next Time - God Bless!!
