The Past
Growing up, I was always a little heavier than everyone else. Not too bad, but a bit. I was very active when I was younger and enjoyed exercise and activity. That helped keep my eating problems in check. I loved running with my dog the most. I used to be a cheerleader and in waterballet. I do remember my mom coming home from the grocery store and my 2 sisters and I would practicly sprint into the kitchen to see what treats she bought and we would "claim" our junkfood for the week. Well, I still love junkfood and am working on changing that. McDonalds and potato chips are my weekness. I hope in time I can learn to love wholesome food just as much as McD's.
I can remember specific weights in my life.
The summer fo 1985 ...
I was the most fit in my life. I exercised and ate right! I was away at a camp for 6 weeks and used that time for me. I loved how I felt and I want to get back to that. I weighed 117# and I am 5' 2 1/2"
HS graduation (1986) . 125
college graduation (1990) 164
....Bad study habbits combined with bad eating habbits
Wedding day (May 25th, 1991) 172
December of 1991: 184
After the birth of my DS 1994: 199
When I got pregnant with DD in 1998: 222
...When DD was born, I cut my hours ar work and my weight up drasticly!!!
Summer of 1999: 244
winter of 2000: 260
Lost a little by November 2000: 242
Since then a steady climb to my highest: 272
That is where I am now. I have a tendancy to Yo-Yo. I do really great for 1 week, and then I am off for 2 and binge daily (hourly?) This cycle has led me to where I am. I have experienced health problems and emotional downs.
But ALL OF THAT IS IN THE PAST....
ON to the present
