Finally...199.0 for first time in my adult life!

I have always been big. I was 160 and only 5' 3 when I was in highschool. I got pregnant when I was only 15 and gave birth to my first son at 16 and 225 pounds. I stayed at that weight after I had him, I honestly thought I was going to be fat forever and thats just how my life was suppose to go....most of my family was big...especially the girls.

I stayed around 225 for 7 years until we decided we were finally ready to have our second baby. I got pregnant and kept gaining, and gaining. When I gave birth I was up to around 273. After I had him I once again stayed the same weight. When my son was about 11 months old it was like walking into a brick wall. I just decided enough was enough, I didnt want to live like this, I wanted to have more energy, more confidence. I wanted to want to be in pictures with my kids instead of always hiding from the camera. I wanted to do more with them instead of being the coat holder!

I started using my wii and was hardley able to do anything! But here I am today proving to myself that I can do this I have now lost over half of my goal weight...which I may or may not want to change when I get there. I am now 199.0, there is no longer a 2 infront of my weight and it feels great. I am actually enjoying doing physical things and working out. My life has already changed so much. The best part is that I have no fear of falling off becuase when I eat something greasy...or lots of junk....I feel like junk and just want a stir fry, or fruit. I never thought that would be me....to crave healthy foods but it happens now. I miss working out when I take a day or 2 off and walking is something that happens all the time instead of once in while. My kids are learning so much and will have a better chance then I did at not become obese...which makes me smile from ear to ear.

So all in all today is a great day! Also feel free to friend request if you want.
