I am less than 20 hours away from starting the walk from here to losers bench. While driving to work the skinny me in my head that is trying to get out said "Play Beyonce, Love on Top!" So of course I listened.

As I was driving and singing to the top of my lungs I started to realized that I have finally put my love for my self on top! I am 35 years old and at my heaviest weighed 280 something. I have put my husband, mother and kids in front of me for years!!!!

Tomorrow I am dropping everything and putting myself in place for my own success. That is AWESOME !

So as I drove with tears burning my face I found that the lyrics to this song are not meant for just a man. They were written to for me and you! This is apart of my journey a[art of what i need to do for my own success.

Do you find the truth in these lyrics?

Honey, honey

I can see the stars all the way from here

Can't you see the glow on the window pane?

I can feel the sun whenever you're near

Every time you touch me I just melt away

Now everybody asks me why I'm smiling out from ear to ear

(They say love hurts)

But I know

(It's gonna take a little work)

Nothing's perfect, but it's worth it after fighting through my tears

And finally you put me first

Baby it's you.

You're the one I love.

You're the one I need.

You're the only one I see.

Come on baby it's you.

You're the one that gives your all.

You're the one I can always call.

When I need you make everything stop.

Finally you put my love on top.

Baby Baby

I can hear the wind whipping past my face

As we dance the night away

Boy your lips taste like a night of champagne

As I kiss you again and again and again and again

Now everybody asks me why I'm smiling out from ear to ear.

(They say love hurts)

But I know

(It's gonna take a little work)

Nothing's perfect, but it's worth it after fighting through my tears

And finally you put me first

Baby it's you.

You're the one I love.

You're the one I need.

You're the only one I see.

Come on baby it's you.

I'm happy for you!! I have to admit, when I saw your title I was like, OMGoodness, what did B do to her???
