Change Is In The Air

2 Months without a blog post. I failed at coming back into this on a regular basis. This time I really will though. I promise. Some major things have been going on and I have some big announcements. The number biggest one which has yet to be shared on the interwebz is....I am going back to school. After the passing of my grandma I had an epiphany. I have decided to return to school to get my 2 year degree in hopes of transferring to the University of Iowa to major in English on the creative writing track. I am beyond excited about this change. Writing is where my passion has always been and for whatever reason I never thought I could make a career of it. That is now my goal. I am very interested in screenwriting and would also love to write novels but really there are so many things I can do. A goal I want to share with you in hopes that you all will see it come to fruition is that I would really love to write for Hellogiggles. If you don't know what it is be sure to check it out at hellogiggles.com.   With me going back to school this brings many other changes as I will no longer be a manager at my job and will be returning to a regular full time person. This was a hard decision as I love managing. It simply came down to needing to dedicate as much time as possible to school in order to succeed. Luckily my team and managers have been super supportive and I get to stay in the same department. I start school NEXT WEEK and it will also be my last week as a supervisor.

Another change that recently came about is that I am going to start selling Advocare. This just came due to my love of spark and how much it has helped me with my energy after surgery! I was asked by my coworker that I bought my spark from if I would be interested in selling and now I am going to. If anyone has any questions about Advocare let me know or check out my Advocare page HERE!  Also if anyone else has used Advocare products post op gastric bypass please let me know as I want to get others input.

So you probably want to know where I am at weight wise. Lets refresh on my beginning stats for those of you who may just be joining. I am 5'3" and my highest weight was 241 lbs. The goal I set for myself is to lose 100 lbs from my high weight so I am currently shooting for 141 lbs. If I can get lower I will be super happy. My current weight is....167.4 lbs! I am currently 27.4 lbs from my goal! At my high weight I was wearing a 20 or 18 in pants and a XXL in shirts. I currently wear a 14 in jeans that are baggy so I think I need 12's and I wear a large shirt. I purchased a size 10 dress for a wedding next weekend so fingers crossed it will fit as it was just a little snug when I tried it on 3 weeks ago.  I have not measured recently but will do so soon so that I can tell you how many inches I have lost.

I am so excited for the changes that are coming. I hope that you will continue to follow me and I hope that more people will join me in following my journey. Good things are coming I promise! More posts, more videos, and just overall more fun! Also....is anyone interested in a possible live broadcast????? I am thinking about all the doors that are opening to me and I am just beyond happy. My life has changed so much since surgery and everything just seems to be falling into place right where it should. Thanks a million to everyone who supports me along the way!
