I’m a stay at home mom to 4 kids. I enjoy making people laugh, spending time with my family, church and choir, and of course EATING. I have had problems with my weight most of my life whether it was being anorexic in high school or being overweight now. I was told about 8 months ago I needed to change my diet because it was causing medical problems and I did really good for about 2-3 months. I went in for a complete hysterectomy and that changed everything. I started back on my fast food kick and my drinking cokes and the nonstop cravings for little Debbie nutter butter bars!! I had lost 33 lbs before my surgery and have since gained all but 4 lbs of it back. I am committed to doing this again not to look good or be smaller but being healthy for myself and my kids. I want to watch them grow up and I want to be able to be an active mom without having to constantly stop because I’m out of breath or aching from being overweight. Starting today my weight is 216.4 (don’t forget that .4) and my goal weight is 160 (although I’ll be happy with any healthy weight)
