Weight has always been an issue

I have been over weight most of my teenage years.

I was diagnosed with PCOS( polycystic ovary sydrome) when I was 16 years old which is the cause among other things of me being over weight!

I tried everything you can think of that would help a normal person trying to diet out. But nothing seemed to work. I would be small one day and gained about 5-7 pounds just from breathing fresh air!

After I had my son in 2009 I never saw so much weight in my life and it just keep coming...

I wasn't happy about it but also had no control over it.

So now that I am at this point in my life where I am literally less than 2 weeks away from this life changing event I am extremely happy but also nervous!!!

Just wanted to share my story and to let it be known that YOU CAN DO THIS!!!
