Time change or Time for a Change

So this past weekend was time change, Spring Forward!  And oh boy, everyone was feeling it in our house this morning as I woke up the kiddos to go to school., it was still dark out!  Yikes!  But as I think of the time change, I think it is time to change some things in my life as well.  

I have been looking into having medical weight loss surgery for about 2 years now.  It has been taken me so long to finally take the plunge because I am not sure if this is right for me.  Not enough evidence that this is a good thing.  My research shows so many negative aspects including gaining all the weight back with a year to two after surgery not to mention the chances of being malnourished are great.  

If I know what is right for me why should it be such a hard choice.  Whats right for me, is eating healthy and exercising...  Why do I give into temptation of food that are so bad for me.  There are not to many things that I find irresistible except, garlic bread or any real good brad for that matter, and chocolate.  I also can be sure that most of my calories come from drinking soda, duh! 

So today I cut out the soda as a first step replace with crystal light and ice tea and good ole water and will add joining weight watchers and walking the track this week as well.

This picture was taken 3 yrs ago, it is one of my favorites.  The last 3 yrs have seem to taken a tole on me, but for short term goal this is where I would like to be in about 3 months.
