If I were to ask someone to describe me, I'm sure that I'll be a warm and bubbly personality {when I'm not having a moment, lol}. I have morals and values that transcend far beyond my years of age. I love reading romantic stories and wishing that my perfect beginning would come sooner rather than later. I love aquarims and tiny dogs. I like crafty things, something that I get from mom. I'm headstrong, a trait from dear old dad. I must say, with parents like mine, I never grew up wanting for anything but I learned the hard way that peer pressure forces you to prove yourself to others who really shouldn't matter.
Growing up I was teased relentlessly by family and friends because of my weight. I was called names like "Miss Piggy", and "Fatso." Names that would really hurt. No one came to my rescue. I would walk up hills in the hot afternoon sun after school, lose weight and it never seemed like enough. When I reached my high school years, I fell in love with my flat tummy, small waist, thick thighs, huge eyes, thick hair, and even my large nose. Unfortunately, I lost myself a few years ago when the stresses of the world knocked me down on my ass and dragged me around.
Too many years too late, I realized that the person I was became buried under excess weight and my happiness and dreams would all begin to suffer. I was diagnosed with Insulin Resistance, PCOS, Diabetes, Infertility and a vast amount of other crap that I can't remember. I'm not even 30 years old and to get out of bed I have to roll, not cute. My feet are sometimes so swollen that the bottom of them are sometimes really red. A nurse practitioner asked me about Medifast a year ago. Cost is always an issue. One year later, I have seen two people in my community who have had great success with Medifast and trust me, seeing is believing. YouTube couldn't light a match to what I saw in person. So, I decided to sign up and take charge of my life in efforts to restore balance and get rid of all these ridiulous ailments that I've been diagnosed with.
