I have been fighting this battle almost my entire life---I was thin as a kid---but not as a teenager---I had my first child and gained a lot of weight and honestly did not know how bad I looked until the pictures from his first birthday party were developed--I mean I knew I was fat---but when I saw those pictures I really did not recognize myself--and I thought "who is that fatty picking up my baby?" then it hit me---wait---that is the shirt I was wearing at the party---Oh My God---that can not be me!!! Well it was me and so I went down to Lindora--(a medically supervised High Protein diet) and it worked I lost 90 lbs in about 5 month and I kept it off for about 7 years and then I got pregnant again---I had a few complications and took full advantage of the "don't over due it" order of my Dr, and before I knew it I had gain 40 lbs and was only 4 months along by the time I delivered I was up a total of 68 lbs and I don't think I really ever lost more then maybe 15 to 20 of it then I had another baby and by the time I had my little one I weighed over 250 lbs---she is now 6 years old and I have tried every thing---I even paid a personal trainer and did a Boot Camp class--I lost weight but have since gained it and more back---so there you have it!
