changes?

So last week I bit the bullet and signed back up for Weight Watchers with a friend and her daughter. I started at my highest weight ever.  It was OVER 300 lbs.  THAT is SCARY stuff.  I am carrying around two adult sized people, almost three! 
I am determined to be a healthier person. It's been almost a week since I've had a Pepsi and I'm not jonesing for it like I expected, anymore. 

I'm considering giving up my Scentsy business.  I LOVE Scentsy. I just don't have the time for it like I would like. That makes me sad, but I need to de-stress and de-clutter my life right now in order to focus on what's truly important: my health and my family.

Obligatory New Year Post

Here were are.  2013. Whodathunkit? 

So, 2012, let's re-cap.  

Isaiah ended third grade (with Star roll - straight As) and began fourth.. he also turned 10. He was inducted into the National Elementary Honor Society at his school.

Sammy turned 4 and went to pre-k at 2 different schools. He loved the blue school, but it turned out Gilbert was better placement for us because of childcare and that sort of thing. 

Kenny went to China & bought another house (for $5000 split down the middle) with his work wife, Tina. 

I became Assistant Head Teller at my job. Diagnosed with Sleep Apnea and began the journey to weight loss surgery. 

My Dad had 4 surgeries on his foot and contracted the C-diff virus, THREE times, then just before Christmas had his lower leg amputated.  

Plans for 2013? 
Be a better Christian.  Read my Bible more. Attend church more.  Just shine the light. 
Have gastric bypass and lose all this weight - become healthier and more active with my family.
Take better care of my home. 
Get our finances under control. 

There really is more to add to it, as I am a perfectionist. However, as I was typing all of this I realized... I could plan all day, but ultimately that plan might not co-incide with God's plans for me.  So we shall see :)
