6 years...

Six years ago today, a friend of mine was killed in a drunk driving car accident. We weren't best friends or anything but we did talk a lot and she did help me through a VERY rough period my senior year of high school. She was such a bright, sweet, honest young woman and she was very intelligent and was going to go far in life and it was all taken from her on July 11, 2004. I miss her so much and although we weren't BFFs or anything, her death hit me hard. She was also an only child, so I know her parents are crushed. I hope you're resting in peace Danielle, and I still miss you and think of you often. You and your wonderful family are in my prayers today, well everyday but today especially.

On a happier note, kinda, I've been researching the HcG diet basically every waking moment that I have been on the computer. I have been finding a lot of testimonials and blogs about it. The more I read, the more excited I get for my shots to get here, so the more nervous and anxious about it I get. I am so worried about the diet failing and not working for me, and I am also nervous that I will gain a whole bunch of weight, or all of the weight I lose back. Those are my big concerns. In a perfect world, I'd lose about 80 lbs at least, and the HcG diet could jumpstart that for me, and then I could exercise and eat right and maintain it. It just seems too good to be true for me.

I swear I had much more to say but I have an almost 7 month old fussing and playing with my feet.
