Here I go again...

I don't know where I'm goin
but I sure know where I've been
hanging on the promises in songs of yesterday.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time
but here I go again, here I go again.

Tho' I keep searching for an answer
I never seem to find what I'm looking for.
Oh Lord, I pray you give me strength to carry on 'cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.

Here I go again on my own
goin' down the only road I've ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time.

Who knew a little Whitesnake could be so appropriate for a weight loss blog?

So, I took a well needed break and was M.I.A. for a bit. Did ya miss me? I wasn't planning on returning any time soon... but I didn't think I'd miss blogging like I do.

To be honest, I was feeling like quite the failure blogging over and over about a new gimmick or a new challenge that I was going to start... tomorrow. Tomorrow was always going to be the day, but months went by and tomorrow never came.

I don't blog for money- I have none. I don't blog for notoriety- I even pulled my blog from I Am Modern because I just don't feel the need to have random peeps knowing how I piss my pants or long for a boob job. I've practically failed out of Blogger 101- I don't have a twitter account, don't do one thing to promote my blog, and even still use blogger (a major faux pas) to blog. Some women go to Weight Watchers meetings, some go to AA, some shop for therapy, some see shrinks- Let's just face it, we are living souls with issues. All of us. And crazy enough, this very blog right here has become my accountability and a source of sanity. I've made friendships, received encouragement, developed heartfelt bonds, vented, cried, and done everything in between on this blog for almost two years. I'm a woman with weight issues and plain and simple- I long to lose weight. I long to feel pretty. I long to love myself and be happy with the outside to have a complete inside. Many people just don't get it... But if you read, I can imagine that you do.

An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time.

Here I go again, baby.:)
