You’d think that all the energy you exhaust running after two little ones would be enough to shed those pesky post-pregnancy pounds but sometimes it takes a little more than that.
At the age of 21, I was blessed with my first child and cursed with an extra 50 pounds of body weight. I had an average weight throughout school, so this was a huge shock for me. I had never been overweight! It took a huge toll on my self-confidence. My second child 3 years later brought me to just over 200 pounds the day she was born. I couldn’t bring myself to check my weight for an entire year after that. Read More…
As a nurse, I reached a point in my life where I realized I have to practice the same healthy lifestyle changes I was preaching to my patients.
After all, who was going to listen to someone at an unhealthy weight about eating right?

At my highest I was around 220 pounds, but it didn’t feel that high. I was always outgoing and never felt self-conscious. I accepted that my body type was “bulky”, and didn’t notice anything wrong with the way I looked, felt, or ate. It wasn’t until my diagnoses that I realized just what bad shape I had put myself into. I hated knowing I had diabetes and knowing I would have to take more medication than I already did. I also have Multiple Sclerosis, and while there was nothing I could do about the MS, there was something I could do about the diabetes. Read More….
