I wasn't always overweight. In fact, as a child and teen I was one of the skinny girls. My weight loss adventures began later in life and have continued. I can honestly say it has not been a true 'struggle' because I did not recognize that I was 'fat', dare I say obese, until I saw a picture of myself. I thought, "OMG! Is that me?" What had I done to get that big? Going from an active life to one of mostly sedentary has adversely affected me and my children. Becoming sedentary is insidious to say the least. It creeps up on you when you least expect it. One day you are active and buzzing here and there....then BOOM! Out of nowhere, days of relative inactivity hit you unawares. I think my sedentary lifestyle began in 2005 and has eclipsed since. So, I am continually striving to regain my once active lifestyle.  That combined with wls,  then I am sure to be successful  and can help others along the way.
