I'm Jeannie, plain and simple. I have been chunky, large, bulky and fat. It all started when I stopped dancing (tap, jazz, ballet) and began working at a fast food restaurant.... I was able to keep my weight under control for a few years, but it got out of hand in my early 20s. Then, I joined the Peace Corps and living a life completely different was able to help me get to a normal weight (150 ish) for my frame. But, when I returned to the USA, I began driving places, eating more processed foods and the weight came back quickly. I have tried almost every (I truly mean this) weight loss plan on the market and many which float around on pieces of paper passed from one overweight pal to another, but nothing has worked.... for long, that is. I have three beautiful children. Only after the birth of my son, did my weight go down, but with another pregnancy,I gained even more...
I am a bird at heart - I long to soar, to travel the world - but I am just not comfortable doing so now.
I work with children and I know just how much I am a bad physical role model...
I want to do this so my outside will match with my inside heart. I long to fly - I am physical, but not to the extent I'd like.
So, here I am, getting the sleeve in a week or so..... I will give this my all ! I am so thankful to be eligible to do this.
In a year, look for me, but look fast, for I won't be in any one place for long....
