I have fought my weight all my life and though always the heavy one of my friends, looking back, I wasn't too bad! After getting married I had 3 kids. My oldest has some special needs and I quit my job to be home. Being home is hard and I ate to comfort myself. My weight has climbed and now I am having health issues. My family is very supportive which is great. I have friends too who support me and will be my exercise buddies. I planned a trip to Africa this July to motivate myself to lose the weight and get in shape. For once, I am doing things for me and myself and not worrying about anybody else for a while. I've learned that if I am happy and healthy, it goes a long way to my family's happiness.
