Hi everyone, my name is Crystal and Im a 21 year old mother of 2. Before I got pregnant with my oldest daughter 6 years ago, I weighed 145-150. After having my daughter, I went up to 220 and then I got married and before I knew it, I was 295 with a lot of health issues. So after being told that if I didnt lose some weight, I wouldnt be alive in 10 years.. I decided to kick myself into gear to get rid of this weight.

In 2011, I had the lapband weightloss surgery and within 4 months, I dropped 50 pounds and ended up pregnant with my 2nd child. After I delivered her in February 2012, I was back up to 270. Now it as been 7 1/2 months later and Im back on the road to success. I am currently down to 249 and Im going strong. Running about 2 miles every other day and in between doing body toning and strengthening exercises.
