taking on to much

ok, iv lost 51lbs and now that im 19lbs away from my goal weight iv desided to go back to school. i never finshed high school, i got married then had a baby at 17. so now that im divorced and almost to my goal weight i see i can do anything i put my mind to. getting my ged is going to be hard. its hard for me to admit to my freinds and co workers that  i never finshed most of them would of never guessed. iv been studing for my pre test for about 3 days and i have to admit common sence which i have is far different then book smarts. i find myself thinking ill never know the square root of anything so why learn it. but my question to myself is am i taking on to much with trying to lose the weight and going back to school i dont want one to suffer for the other i guess. wish me luck

    You can do both. We have a gal a WW who works 12 hours days and has small children at home and she is losing weight by carefully planning her meals. She brings her lunch cooler and eats pre-planned foods from that right down to the drinks and all. Keep it simple. Just make sure you are not hungry when you take a test.

    I am so pleased for you going back and finishing school. I would make school the priority for sure. Jobs are hard to come by and this will increase your chances for success. I did not start college until I was 34. It is never too late and you are going to be a success.
