The Last Three Octobers (PICS)

Kalah7Renae12Vera

I was 290 pounds before I got pregnant with my first son Julian, I reached 360 pounds at my heaviest while pregnant with him, and was still 330 pounds over a month postpartum. I was told I would never have children due to ovarian cysts and my weight, but I knew God sent me a miracle to save my life, and I did.

I am now 210 pounds (nearly 150 pounds lost) and 20 weeks pregnant with my SECOND child, a blessing I don't take for granted. I an thankful everyday that after spending my entire childhood and early adult years being obese, I finally did what I needed to to get healthy for my child, my husband, and myself... and I just want to let all of you know that it is possible, this is your life, your body... take control and start REALLY LIVING.



From left to right:
October 2011: One month pregnant with my first son, about 295 pounds
October 2012: One month postpartum about 330 pounds
October 2013: 5 months pregnant with my second son at 210 pounds
