I am a soon to be 32 year old mom of 1 daughter, Summer- aka my ladybug! I have never been good at taking care of myself. I know we control our own destinies so I am trying my best to lose this weight and do the things I want to do and be comfy in why I want to do them. That is a tough one for me- I am always doing for others. I am usually pretty hard on myself, but haven't quite found self-acceptance.

I suffer from diabetes (my family is obese and runs in the family)- was diagnosed at the age of 27. My mom is on kidney dialysis 3 days a week because she did not control her diabetes and take care of herself and I don't want to end up in the same boat.

I want to be healthier- but I'm not gonna lie. I wanna feel and look sexy! I want to feel better about myself when I walk into an business and not feel like all they see is a fat face and body. I want to have more energy. I want to look at myself in the mirror and stop seeing the fat sagging. I want to be better at jogging. I just wanna find me and be more comfy in my own skin!

Here are some short term goals:
220 by Christmas Day- MET (Yay!)
215 by New Years Eve- Not Met (New goal: Jan. 30)
200 by Feb. 20th
