I have been overweight for over 15 years. I always fought my weight but it wasn't until I got pregnant with my dear daughter that the weight just kept coming. Six months after giving birth I still had not lost the weight and in fact put more on. It wasn't until then that my doctor stated that I had a thyroid issue. By that time I had struggled for so long that I was done. If my medication wasn't going to take care of the weight by itself, I was just exhausted with a new child and done with the whole thing. Over the years the weight has just kept climbing. I got pregnant with my son and put on more weight but with the help of the medication I was able to take it off after he was born. However, sadly, I have just kept climbing again. I have been on and off diets more that... well if you are reading this than you understand exactly how many I have been on and fallen off. I am looking forward to making a change for me that will help me to conquer my fight with weight and allow me the opportunity to put my efforts in other places. I want to run and play with my kids while they still want me around before that time is gone and I am sick of walking up 1 flight of stairs and huffing and puffing. This is the first day of the rest of my life.... and if I live through the "all liquid" part of my diet it will be a miracle.
