Hi everyone I am a 44 year old mother of one married 11 years and have struggled with weight all my life. My highest weight was 337 a little over a year ago. My first large goal is 200 and I try to work on those 10 pounds at a time. I don’t consider myself on a diet but learning healthier way to live. In 2005 I was diagnosed diabetic and realized I was killing myself with the thing I thought I loved most!! My A1C was 13 and my sugar was so high they admitted me on the spot (it was well over 500). I thank God that I am still here. I heard someone say when you know better, you do better so here I am just looking to keep motivated and moving forward. Glad to be here and welcome advice and encouragement. If anyone is in Houston, Texas, I would love to have a workout buddy. I have joined a couple of challenges and look forward to dropping the rest of these pounds!!
