I was a stay at home mom for several years. I am happily married for 19 years and am the mother of 3 boys. I just started working as a medical assistant 2 1/2 years ago. Growing up I never really had a problem with weight. I was always skinny and could pretty much eat whatever I wanted without gaining weight. After having kids, it got harder and harder to lose weight. I was diagnosed with POS when I had my last child in 2002. With being skinny I didn't have the skills to know how to be healthy.

With my husband, I am happy to say we are now working together to be healthier for our children and for each other. I am happy to have been introduced to this group and I look forward to learning what I can do to not only lose weight but be healthy.
