How Did I start getting lose weight??
But first here is a quick overview of my back story and about my weight loss journey:
I’m a wife and mother and have struggled with my weight since I was 19 years old. Going as high as 304 pounds. Had high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Was borderline type 2 diabetic. Most people won’t ever know what it feels like to be trapped in your own body. To struggle with a mountain that seems too hard and impossible to climb. To carry an astronomical amount of weight and not know where to start on getting back to a feeling of control. I admitted to myself that I was out of control and had allowed my feelings to be dealt with by using food. (It was so bad I remember standing up in my kitchen eating a sandwich and chips, while I was actually cooking dinner that I would soon eat in less than an hour; I was eating while preparing to eat!)
If you have ever fought the battle of the bulge or are struggling right now in your weight loss journey and feel like the lion is too hard to defeat- I’m here to tell you, it can be done. I will not lie, it is hard and takes determination and lots of planning but it can be done.
