My Story

Hi,
 My name is Meleta and I am a 38 yr old mother of one beautiful son Casey and happily married to my best friend and husband Oscar. We met at a very early age of 17 and have been together since. We live in Missouri and love to vacation in Arizona with family. I have had been overweight since I was 20 yrs old and have tried to diet and exercise and only gained more back in the end. I have went to WW 3-4 times and lost 27 lbs once. I tried the Atkins diet,low carb diet,Fenphen,diet pills,not eating,Slim Fast,and just trying to do it alone. All of which has not worked. I have in the past year been diagnosed with a fatty liver,borderline diabetic (currently taking Metformin for this),high blood pressure(which I am taking Norvasu),anxiety(which I am taking Wellbutrin),boderline sleep apnea(not bad enough to require a c-pap machine) and acid reflux. All of which is linked to the fact that I am extremly overweight. I recently have gone to my OBGYN and was told that due to my high blood pressure and weight it is dangerous to be on birth control which I am on for my endometrosis. So to make a very long story short .....I need to lose weight and I need help doing that now. I have support from my familly and my church family. They of course would like to help me and are encouraging me to join WW again and start a new exercise program. This process has been trying and stressful and I know that the Lord just wants me healthy. So I am willing to do whatever it takes to make myself and my life more about health.
