Amy K.
I am a 30-year-old work-at-home divorced single mom of two daughters. Amaya is 3 1/2 and Kaia is 1. I work in the health information field and have an A.A.S. degree in Health Information. In January 2008 I start the U of Cincinnati online to finish my Bachelor's degree in Health Information Management and hope to go to law school after that so I can provide a good life for my daughters. I've been overweight my entire life. I had gestational diabetes during my second pregnancy and now am being tested again. I have sleep apnea and wear a CPAP at night. I have hypothyroidism, irritable bowel syndrome, and depression. I am at my highest weight ever thanks to psychiatric medications and I am ready to make a change. I cannot live like this and will NOT let myself hit 300 pounds. I'll do anything I have to do. I am doing this for my daughters and myself. I need to be there for them!!!
