These photos were hard to post (harder than I thought it would be)...now they are officially out there....I started my journey about 5 years ago. I have never been a small individual, but was a swimmer until about 20. I gradually put on weight iin college and left college over 200lbs. I lost and gained weight off and on the next five years and became pregnant in 2001. After the first pregnancy I gained about 60 lbs and kept it on. When Wilson was about 2 and the weight didn't come off I began changing my lifestyle one day at a time. Working out was the initial step, but after little success I hit the nutrition aspect harder. I bought a calorie counting book and measured and used a journal to record EVERYTHING! Make a long story shorter, I lost a total of 72 lbs in about 2 years. I became a personal trainer and am now in school to become a Dietician. With my second pregnancy I gained about 40lbs and finally surpassed my pre pregnancy weight and every day is still a journey. I hope to inspire, support. educate and motivate you to achieve your highest potential in each day. What are you waiting for?
