Where do I begin, I guess my story is probably similair to so many others out there. I have always been on the chunky side. When I was a kid, I was very athletic and played several sports for many years. I think that is what really helped keep my size under control. After high school my weight sure enough, started creeping up. Then came the kids. My weight continued to rise with each one. Before I knew it I was 235lbs.
All of my children are teenagers now and as I look back, I can't believe how much time I have wasted being so uncomfortable in my own skin. My biggest regret is that it has taken me so long to finally say enough is enough. Sure, I dieted for years, like everyone else. I had some success, only to gain it all back and then some. It was a vicious cycle I was trapped in for far too long. I don't think my children have ever known me to be truely happy with my appearance. I like to think that I put on a good act, but I don't think I ever fooled anyone.
I can not tell you how excited I am to be given this amazing gift. I know that it is not going to be easy, but nothing worth having ever is, right? I am going into this with my eyes wide open and feel truly blessed to be given this amazing tool.
