I used to be on top of the game, in shape and normal weight according to my height. Due to life changing experiences that turned my life upside down, I ended up 40 pounds heavier in under two years. After months of being depressed and no feeling healthy I decided to take back control of my life and get back into shape and being healthy again. I want to be here for a long time, live, laugh and love those that are part of my life. I'm thrilled that I was referred to this website and now even happier to find that I really enjoy and appreciate all the support offered here. I hope that in my journey to a healthier me, I can pay it forward by helping someone as I'm been helped.
