hey everyone!! I just started this about two weeks ago!!! I was born missing both of my legs above the knee and a fused hip - weight has always been a struggle for me! even being born missing both of My legs I played
High school and college softball and was always able to keep
My weight under control by staying active that way.. But once I was done with college, I stopped playing softball. My brother also passed away recently and I gained a lot of weight during that time. I am 27 years old and so
Embarrassed to say I am over 200 pounds - I am a 6th grade teacher now, and am sitting in my wheelchair for basically the whole day. I met a man I fell in love with about 5 years ago and he recently proposed to me!!
I always dreamed about walking down the isle in prosthetic legs on my wedding day and recently have been in the process of physical
Therapy and dieting to get ready to be molded for prosthetic legs! My wedding is October 17 2015 And I have to prove to my insurance company and prosthetic doctor that I am ready to be molded by March 20-- they asked me to lose about 20 pounds by then. I have been going to the gym, getting out of the wheelchair more at home, and doing physical therapy twice a week! I am truly hoping this plan will help me reach my
Goal!! Any advice or help is SO appreciated!!!! ❤️❤️

Wow, what an inspiration you are and what an amazing story you have to share with others. All the best to you in the days to come. I am so sorry for your loss, that is one of the things that triggered me into an emotional eating frenzy thereby gaining so much weight.
