So, I have made a decision...

I am not getting my MBA this year. I thought long and hard about this, even called my dad for advise- which doesn't happen very often. I think that with the weight loss and the promotion, I should really focus on those 2 things- losing my weight, and trying my darndest to succeed at my new job. I think that the promotion happened for a reason, just like my job offer last year happened for a reason, and I'm going to take it and run with it.

There is a slight tinge of worry that I am making a mistake, but I have to believe that it just isn't right for me this year. I am only 24, and the average starting age for the program is like 28, so I have plenty of time to catch up. I'm not going to have kids or anything for a long time, and I think that would be the only thing that would hold me back from pursuing this in the future.

If you think I'm making a mistake, let me know. But, I felt a huge rush of relief when I finally said it out loud- like this pressure and anxiety was taken away. We'll see how I feel in a few days...
