I have struggled with my weight since I was a little girl. Some of my strongest memories of childhood are sitting with the pediatrician while he shows me a weight chart "you should be here, but you're all the way up here." I've been through weight loss camps, weight watchers many times, jenny craig, nutrisystem, many nutritionists- you name it! I also sufffer from asthma, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and insulin resistance.
It's time to make a change! I feel like I've been in neutral for too long. I want to go forward with my life. I'm too young (22) to have so many things slowing me down. Life is short, ya know?
I have amazing family and friends and one incredible boyfriend who are helping me through this process. I feel so lucky to have such great support! But, I'm glad that I have OH for the support that they cannot provide. So thank you all for being my extended family through this exciting, yet scary new period in my life!
