Going from "Miss popularity" in highschool to a single mother who then married an alcoholic and all the hardships along with all the wrong choices ended up spinning my life out of control. At the end of 2005 I did some real soul searching and took a look at my life for what it really was. I work I come home and I tend to my family, that's it! That's all there is, which is fine but I am really unhappy so I asked myself Why? I realized that the bottom line was my weight. Because of the fact I am over weight I don't like to go out in public, which takes away from any extra activities. Because of my weight I don't like to even look in the mirror, which makes dressing up and feeling good about myself NIL. I realized that life is the way we make it, I am the only one to blame for my life spinning out of control and I am the only one who can fix it and one thing I know for certain is I don't want to waist anymore time feeling depressed. So I now have take control of problem number 1. My weight. I decided to design this website as a support system not only for myself but others who may feel the way I do.
