Hi, my name is Tishala. I am a 31 year old wife and mother. I have 2 little boys. My oldest is 7 (McKenna) and my youngest is 3 (Malachi). I am married to the most wonderful man I have ever met. His name is Mike. We have been married for more than 7 years now. The best part, he loved me even when I was at my heaviest. He worries all the time that weight loss will change me.
At my heaviest I was somewhere in the 230s. I will never know an exact number because my scales are so off base. At my final weigh in at the doctors office I think I was 236. Today, I am 3 weeks out and my scale says 198, BUT my scale is 4 pounds different than the docs and the docs is 6 pounds different from the mall and in the evening I weigh 4 more pounds than I do in the morning..AHHH!! I have not come out of my current size clothing just yet, but some of my pants are getting big.
Alot of people ask why I did this. I dont have just one answer. Some of my decision was based on health..more for my childrens health than for mine. But, I have to admit that most of my decision was based on vanity. I am a natural born performer. I could live my whole life on a stage. My greatest desire in life is to become a paid actress and singer. I couldnt make those dreams come true if I continued to weigh more than 150 pounds. I just couldnt lose the weight by myself. My goal is to lose this weight and finally have a chance to really compete with other talented performers.
I also want to make my husband proud. His career is based a lot on image. Its a career that he loves and is very good at. Most of the men in his industry have "Trophy Wives" that they love to show off. I have never been one of those women at all. Mike has never complained a day in our marriage, but it is something I would like to do for him. I want to show up at an event on his arm and actually look as good as I feel.
