Well, it’s been about a year and a half, and I haven’t made much progress. I have struggled with some health issues, but mainly I just haven’t found that all-needed motivation to do what needs to be done to lose weight. I think I’m almost there…at the point where I’m ready. I’m hoping the next time I update this, I’ll have significant results to share! :)

realize my parents can never love me the way I need to be loved

Loving them even though they can't change 17 months ago

I am learning to accept the fact that my parents are who they are, and aren’t going to change. They are both wonderful people, but they are not capable of loving me the way I want to be loved by them. I desperately want to be closer to them and have more time with them. I am still recovering from childhood wounds they aren’t even aware they inflicted. I want to let go of the past and just love them for who they are (and aren’t). This is a work in progress for me.

put 3% of paycheck into 401K and get company match

Saving again 17 months ago

We finally started putting money back into our 401K again. Because we filed for bankruptcy, we had to quit contributing for a while because the government considered this small amount to be “disposable” income. I feel like we are finally back on track. Now, we just need to pay off our 401K loans.
