    • About Me

      36 yr old working Mom, Married w/ 2 children. I have been overweight for at least the last 14 yrs. I was never really the skinnest kid around but not until my teens did it start to get harder to control. Both my parents died when I was very young and when they were young really from heart attack and stroke. I know that my weight can send me down the same road and I want to be here to watch my children and there children grow. My sugar keeps getting higher and the dr says I am teetering right on the edge of becoming a diabetic.
