I have changed significantly over the last year, I care about myself, I am far more positive in my actions and outlook, I have lost 30 of the 100 pounds I intended to lose, I ask for the things I need in my relationships, I go to social events regularly and I am taking my education more seriously.
There is still a lot of progress to be made. I would like to have a positive outlook at least 75% of the time. I want to increase my level of exercise so the weight comes off more easily.

It would be easier to remove the rituals and trappings of Wicca/Paganism/Etc and focus instead on your own determination and spiritual guidance.
