I am 42 years old. I have 3 children: Theresa-23, Ashley-13 and Nathan-12. 1 husband-Wayne.
I weighed 184 when I graduated from high school. I ballooned up to 286 (the day AFTER Theresa was born. I wouldn't get on the scale prior to giving birth). When I was 23 I joined a eating support group and lost 136 pounds. For the next 14 years i kept the weight off, gaining a few pounds loosing them etc... THEN i let some depressing stuff get me down and started gaining weight 20 pounds here and 15 pounds there, and getting bummed about the weight gain, so hey eat another cookie! That vicious cycle started, and I currently weigh 281 pounds. I am not 23 years old any more and the weight is not coming off in any satisfying increments no matter what I attempt. I am going to be healthy again, this time next year. I am going to run in the yard and play frisbee with the young ones, and teach them a thing or two. This is the start of my journey that single step.
