My name is Christina. I am happily married to my wonderful husband and I have three kids ages 12, 6 and 3. I wasn’t always happy though and I will explain why.

From 254 to 197 PIC HEAVY
I've OFFICIALLY pushed the door to Onederland wide open! Technically I made it back at the end of January, but I then hit a wall and was bouncing back and forth between 199 and 201. Today I woke up to 197!!! I haven't seen these numbers in 11 years since my daughter was born! I leave you with some pics!

My Transformation (with pictures)
I've been between 199-202 for a while now and I suddenly started feeling my motivation slip away from me. So, I decided to post this to help motivate myself and in turn motivate others who are feeling the same way. My highest non pregnancy weight was 254 and I'm now down to 199 and GOING to keep going down thanks to this…

HELP!!! I NEED YOU! YES YOU!!
A month ago, I reached Onederland weighing in at 199.6 ....but it was bittersweet. All the worrying about going back to the 200's unfortunately made it happen. So, after a couple weeks and hanging off the wagon (not fully fallen off) I finally today reached 199.0! Back in Onederland again...This time, I need to stay there!…

Down 50+ Pounds and Half Way to my Goal!!!!
I was always a thin girl growing up and always made fun of my younger sister who was overweight so I guess I got what was coming to me. My weight gain started for me when I moved in with my, now, ex-husband. I didn't work so I just sat at home eating of boredom. By the time I got pregnant with my daughter, I had already…

The body is a funny thing
I've been restricting myself with 1200-1400 calories since July. I've managed to lose 30+ pounds in doing that combined with exercise.
