I have one more diet visit to go then its time the turn in the paper work for Approval. TRYNA STAY FOCUS! O AND I GOT A NEW HAIR CUT. TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK ?
Let's see where do I start ? My highest weight is 282 (right now) it's been a while since i've stepped foot into a size 16 and that really hurts because that was my favorite size. So here's the thing, 2004 that was the last time i was really really happy. I worked hard and lost over 45 pds. I put that weight loss in the Kecia Greatest Accomplishments catagory of my life. But then i met my Husband in 2006 and got way to comfortable with my weight and began to gain from eating out and hangin out all the time. He still loves me no matter what but i want to look my best. I was pregnant for the better part of 2007 and only put on 30 pds suprisingly but after having my little one i went from 291 preggo to 274 not preggo and now at 282 noT preggo. WHF ?!!!! your not suppose to gain weight after the baby. Well anyway I'm doing this for my SELF, self esteem,self confidence,and self worth. Because your body is your temple and if you dont take care of your self then life wont take care of you. I'm so happy to have found a website where the are folks just like me just striven to be better people. I hope my journey is as successful as the storys and pics i've seen out there from some of you.
