About me: I have faced so many challenges in my life, and have over came a few...but I am determined to face this challenge head on full steam ahead....WEIGHT LOSS!!! This has been a struggle for me. I used to weigh 285 now I am currently 224...and it took me a LONG time to get to this point. I have a daughter and a husband who are supportive...BUT LOVES TO EAT LIKE ME!!! So that in itself is challenging b/c I LOVE TO COOK as well as get seconds and third portions...but Im learning...My goal is 135 pounds...what I used to be when I was in the 11th grade...and now at 32 years old...I cant use the excuse..."oh....I'm still fat b/c I had a baby" (even tho my baby is 7 yrs. old LOL) I MUST FLY ABOVE ALL ODDS AND ACCOMPLISH WHAT OTHERS SAID I COULDN'T....IM DOING THIS FOR ME!!!
