I have always been "Hacky Wacky" which is my lingo for HAPPY! I refuse to allow my obesity to control me.

I write down everything I eat and count the calories so I don't go over a certain amount. Everyone should do this if they are dieting or not. I think we all would be shocked by it.

I have always been "Hacky Wacky" which is my lingo for HAPPY! I refuse to allow my obesity to control me.

I am on an emotional roller coaster ride to survive and to conquer obesity, not only for myself but also for everyone that battles some kind of addiction.

The meal plan was hard at first because I am a snack eater, but the most challenging part is trying to change my pallet to like healthy food.

There is more weight to be lost and so many more things I need to learn and conquer.

I don't let negative attitudes and meanness from other people keep me from living my life.
