Hello,
I have been BIG for years! I had my only child in 2006 weighing 255 pounds while pregnant. (Prior to gaining baby weight, I weighed 180) I thought the weight would "just come off" and my figure would go right back to normal. WELL, WHAT THE HECK WAS I THINKING!? LOL. 11 years later, I STILL LOOK PREGNANT. LOL I am only LOL'ing because its insaine how that sounds.
Now with an 11 year old daughter, (who has been eating the food I BRING into the house) has come to me asknig for help. I no longer am LOL'ing ... In fact just the opposite. My heart has broken for her beucase I have failed her in this area. I have broken my back in other ways to be the very best and provide for her...but have failed her and myself with healthy eating choices. Hello Chocolate!! NOT.
So, end of Nov, 2017 I made a change, weighing 266. Today I weighed 252.
It has been GREAT for my daughter. For me, I still go off and on. I will say my daughter has soooo much more self discipline than I have at times and she has helped me, probably more than I have helped her. I now have have joined a Biggest Loser game starting Jan. 15th. I so look foward to being a part of others making better choices for themselves, sharing frustrations and achievements!! Good luck to all! I'll be in touch!
