I am a 40 year old Mother of two a 20 year old and a 3 year old, i have always struggled with my weight for as long as i can remember, i have tried every diet out their with no success. My highest was 290 and i refused to be 300. my lowest was 150 in my 12 grade year of high school, i achieved this by refusing to eat the year, this was very hard on my body and so unhealthy. weight just always came back.

I was diagnosed as a diabetic in 2005 and a very bad diabetic, i took my med but my eating choices were always wrong. i became pregnant with my daughter in 2008 and had to make changes very fast to keep her safe and healthy that is when they put me on insulin large amounts, My daughter was born a month and one week early with no complication, i actually lost weight during this pregnancy.

my weight came back, i can been considering the surgery but did not choose to do till i talked to my sugar dr. in 2011 and so began my adventure at 289
