I have struggled with my weight since childhood, at the age of eight I weighed 100 pounds. Freshman in high school weighed 165 pounds, 200 pounds in college and then I graduated to the morbidly obese category in my mid-20's a couple of years after college. I weighed 280 when I was pregnant with my daughter at the age of 28 and then over 300 when I was pregnant with my son 3 years later. My highest weight was 625 pounds in 2005. This struggle with morbid obesity has affected all of my immediate family members, even my children. So if I can fight the fight maybe it will encourage my beloved family members to fight their obesity issues as well.

In my particular case I know I am up against some bad genetics as well as emotional issues that have led me to where I am at today. My health issues include: hypothyroidism, hyperinsulemia, diabetes, depression, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, lymphdema and sleep apnea. To say the least I know I have a long road to travel down, and there will be some bumps, some uphill challenges and possibly some road construction, but I am going to fight the fight to the best of my ability.

Won't you join me in this process by providing your thoughts and prayers, support and motivation and I will return the same to you!
