well as you may have already guessed. The kids are the light of my life. I have three pre-teen girls. 12,11, and 10. (YIKES) and 2 boys - 6 and 3. 
Yes this makes the emotions and antics in my house extreme. My husband and I have been married for 12 years. Dec. 31, 1994! But we were high school sweethearts so we've been together fo 15 years.
I'm 32 and a full time college student. I have one school year left and hope to have the surgery soon so I can graduate as a new woman!I love my life, my family, and my God. 
I only have one complaint .......My health.

Well been home a few day's now.  What a long week.  My surgery took 4 hours.  I was in recovery for like 3 more because they didn't have a room for me.  I know in the end I will be happy but now I wonder .

I must say    the drain tube...  bothers me
                       not one time have I even felt hungry
                       actually always full........ Am I drinking to much water?
                       my blood sugar and blood pressure are all over so I adjust  my 
                       meds. Hopefully I won't need them at all soon



My family has been incredible. I haven't cleaned or cooked. I just wander around.  I know reality has to hit soon, and I will need to do something LOL.
My husband brang all the kids to the hospital one day. It was so nice. I was having a rough day pain and worry. Aeeing my babies made it all better. 


Thank God for such a wonderful husband and childlren.

I tewenty four hours I will be getting ready to leave, for the hospital. Wowo. I am actuallyu going through with it.   It seems amazing, God has given me a chance to troake care of my self. And to overcome so many bad habits. I truely think that seeing me do this will help my children to not go the same hard road that I did. I am GOING To break this cycle with my family. I  don't want them to be facing obesity and surgewry when they are older. I want tham to be able to see shat I have gone through. And realize It's better to change bad habits now! I want to be a way  for them to learn that proper meals and proper eating are soo important. 

I want to thank everyone for support and prayers. I love you all!

My Story


I don't know that it's different then many others. I was an over weight child but not like I am now. (If only I could be the 180 I was when I graduated). Funny thing is I still feel like her. I look in the mirror and I say who is that. I'm the person hiding inside. (not the one you see in front of you.)

Well I have five beautiful kids and a wonderful husband. I love them all so much but I am afraid. I fear that I won't be there for them.  If I stay the way I am now will i be there when they graduate, or go to college,get married. I want to now my grandchildren  not just imagine what they will be like someday.


I want to grow old with my husband. I have enjoyed his love and companionship since I was a jounior in high school. We've been through the easy and the rough. The wasw with me when I was normal size, and Still now that I'm not. I want to be able to look back and remember all the times.  Not regret a life to short.

I want to be happy.  I want to be in a  good mood. I want to be able to enjow life, and my children. Not have them remember  mommy as fat and tired and grumpy...
I realize that I need to change. For my children. For my husband. And if for no other reason, for me.
