Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out.

Mile 4 of my 10 mile run yesterday
Sometimes when I dont have the words for things I will turn to music and lyrics for inspiration, consolation, or direction.

Enter Tom Petty.

Now that I've seen a -4 on the scale after four months of rehab and related weight gain, I feel a little less "Free Fallin" and a little more "Won't Back Down."

Well I know what's right, I got just one life
in a world that keeps on pushin' me around
but I'll stand my ground, and I won't back down

This is a very good mental place for me to be.

Rehab is tough, but I'm tougher.
My body is delicate, but my resolve is stronger.
My weight fluctuates, but who I am never changes.

I am a fighter.

    You're a bad ass. You exude badassery in abundance (no, really). No way you won't win, girl.
