I have back problems which resulted from a car accident over 20 years ago but my weight makes it worse, high blood pressure, borderline diabetic, and poor mobility. All of my health problems have changed my life and now it's time to get HEALTHY!!!
Most of my life I was small (size 8-10), but once I got married for the first time and moved to Germany with my then husband, I then learned to bake and cook. I think that was the beginning of my love for food and loving to watch others eat my creations just fueled my soul. My weight started to slowly come on, by the time I came back to the states (after 3yrs) I was a size 16. WOW... seeing that in print for the first time, I just didn't know!! Over the next few years I continued to bake and cook, and my weight began to climb...I had gotten comfortable in my larger body, until one day..... I made up my mind after numerous attempts to lose the weight to really do it and I did! BUT.... I did it all WRONG.... I used Herbalife and speed tablets together, did I mention WRONG..... well I lost the weight, I went from a 22 to a 10... in 2 MONTHS.... YEAH.. 2 months. I looked good, but you know the story it all came back in about 2 1/2 years plus some. I kept climbing... I met my current husband at about size 18-20, and because he loved me for me and told me that all he wanted was for me to be HEALTHY... but I guess I got comfortable with him and my weight continued to climb, and a long with the weight came more health problems ... now I am at my HEAVIEST ever..... now I am wearing anything from a 28-32.... WOW, HOW DID I GET TO THIS POINT....did I give up on life and me? The sad thing is now, I don't eat much at all.... maybe 1 meal a day if that... I am no longer baking, except on occasion, rarely cook, an d I don't do any type of exercise, so of course whatever I eat, just sticks like glue. NOW is the changing point of my life and I will make this happen and change my life once and for all..... I know that it will be hard, but with support,faith,determination and GOD's help it can and will be done.
I AM SPEAKING THIS INTO EXSISTANCE! **this was my long story short**
