Goodbye 2010!

It's the last day of 2010 - and like most people I am reflecting on what the year has been for me. I have made some mistakes - like we all do. But I have learned from them - or at least - I think I have. I have many ups and downs - and I have also lost 98 pounds. Going into 2010 I never thought that was going to happened. I was upset and depressed being so overweight - but I finally did something about it.

I am glad I made the choice to have surgery to help my weight loss. I don't think I could have done it without the help. I have more energy, I have more time to do things. I just feel a lot better. I look good, and I feel good about it. I like to go shopping now and I still like food. Learning how to eat and what to eat is something that is a daily lesson, but I don't stress about it anymore.

I am happy that I started my MBA program. It is a lot of work - and I am tired - but I know it's going to be worth it in the end. All things are possible. 2011 will be a promising year for my career. I have the chance to shine - and that is what I am going to do. It's going to be hard work - but I know God is giving me this chance to do what I am supposed to do.

2011 is a year of me. Not to be selfish - but I am going to be. I have done so much for others and I don't feel like I get the same in return. I feel like I need to make myself happy before I can make others happy. Not sure what is in store for me - but I know, I am going to work on making me happy.

I turn 30 this coming year. Never thought this is where I would be in my life at this point. But this is the plan that God had for me. Teaching me patience and control.

I miss my grandparents. I wish they were all around to have their wisdom and company. I know they look down from heaven upon me and my family, but I still miss them.

Looking forward to a better 2011!
