Scales

My scales lie to me. If they are telling the truth, I have finally hit the 50 pound mark and I have another 110 to go…lol… but they lie. A couple of days ago they said 269. Today it’s 258. Bull! I haven’t lost 11 pounds in 2 days. They kept giving me an err message a couple of times before it finally gave me a number. I think I need a new battery…lol… it’s been a couple of years since I’ve seen that number though. When mom and Tony died, I was at 249. It then ballooned to a whopping 309+. I stopped getting on the scales when I hit 309 so that’s the highest number I saw. Anyway, I decided I had to do something about it now or I wouldn’t be seeing my grand baby grow up. I’m back to intermittent fasting and I’m already feeling better but hey, if the scales have not lied, I’m down 51 pounds. Yay!!!!

Ad for my book

The ad for my book came out on YouTube yesterday. It turned out beautifully I think. Of course I’m biased…I have so many mixed emotions about this. I guess it is all in God’s hands now. What’s done is done and I guess I just need to hang on and wait for the backlash. I just pray that God will use it to help someone. Someday, somehow. GOD’S WILL BE DONE.

Fear

I am so scared and can’t tell anyone. The ones who told me I should write this book now say I shouldn’t have done it. I can’t talk to anyone about my fears or my hopes. I’m afraid people will look at me differently when they know the things I’ve done. Will I see pity or shame on their faces? Will this dumb thing help anyone at all or just take away all the people I love. It is still in distribution right now and I still don’t have a release date yet, but it is looming ever so close and I’m scared and alone with my fears. I wish Tony were here. He would at least let me talk about it then he would say, ” oh mom, just get over it. What’s done is done. Now we just live with the fallout.” But at least he would let me express my fears and talk it out. I miss him.
