wanting_2_b_thin
I am married to a wonderful man named James. We married in Janruary of 2002. He married me and my 12 year old (at the time). He took on a responsibility that he didn't have to. We then had a beautiful baby boy together in September of the same year. We found out 2 days before our wedding that I was pregnant. That made for an interesting toast. My daughter is now going on 19 and my boy will be 7.I have been obese to varying degrees since I gave birth to my daughter in 1990. I did lose around 100 lbs in 1998-1999 due to drug use. I won't rehash that nightmare, but I am recovering! I regained all of that weight in 02 when I got pregnant with my son. (plus about 50 or so more).I had a complete hysterectomy in 2006 and have gained steadily ever since. I am always on a diet. So the question is always "which one this time." My doctors said is was the change in hormones and that I will even out in a few years as my body adjusts....(what a joke.) I also quit smoking the day of my surgery. So I guess I probably needed to learn a new way to deal with stress, but I replaced one addiction for another. In December of 2008 I decided to no longer look at myself as a victim of my environment. I was shocked back to reality when my 6 year old tipped the scales at 97 lbs. I did that to him...no one else...ME. He is still weighing in at 94.4 lbs currently, but he is in much better shape. I am reshaping both our lives. He is now in wrestling(doing quite well too) he has soccer and t-ball coming up. We are eating healthier and being more active together. LIFESTYLE CHANGE. NOT ANOTHER DIET!!
