Day-13: Happy St. Paddy's Day

... because Patty is short for Patricia and Paddy is short for Patrick, which is derived from Padraig. Thank you ABC news.

Actually, of all the major holidays, I know few of the details regarding St. Patrick's Day. St. Patrick died on March 17th a long time ago. I know to wear green, to drink beer, to "eat" corned beef and cabbage (next year) and if I can, be in Savannah, Georgia for the party.  I could wiki St. Paddy's Day, but eh.  It's okay Emmitt was once an Irish surname so I think I get a pass on needing to know the holiday details.

BTW:


BEER!!!!








Anyway -

Today was a much better day than yesterday. No near misses, not doubts, no second guessing. Don't worry coach I got this.

When I was struggling on Day-12 I told Beth, "It's a good thing I'm losing weight, because going though this and being the same size when I'm done would not be worth it." Sadly that is how I feel, I'm that weak, needy and selfish. I wish a closer connection to God would be enough to keep me going through this, but if it were, my journey would be daily devotionals and Bible study. Yep, I'm needy and vain, and to go with the faith building I need the liquids, the blog and the weight loss.

Holiday = Short Post.

Started the day at 199 LBS
