My Story

Having been morbidly obese most of my life I didn’t realize how much food and my surroundings played a huge part in my being. I would eat whatever I wanted without thinking about the toll it was taking on my body. There were days where I would drink nothing but soda. I hated the way I looked in pictures and would rarely allow them to be taken of me. I love going to the movies and it became a struggle to fit in the theater seats – it was embarrassing. Buckling my seat belt in the car was another challenge. I was extremely unhappy with who I had become and suffered for a long time with depression and anxiety.


​All of the medical ailments I had due to my weight were starting to hinder my living. In August of 2014 I decided to start with a medically developed weight loss program to learn better ways of eating, and it helped to prepare me for what was to come. Seven months after I stopped that program, I had the gastric sleeve procedure. I know firsthand the lifestyle modifications that are required with weight loss and the obstacles that are to come.


Along my journey, post bariatric surgery, I have suffered two miscarriages and was diagnosed with Postpartum depression (PPD). I know exactly how it feels to have things spiral out of control.


I made the courageous decision to step back into my confidence, take back my leadership, slow down, breathe, and live my best life. I have a heightened awareness of my body and what it needs, and the world around me looks different.


​Knowing what I do now is so amazing! 


​Weight to me is both mental and physical weight with both going hand in hand.
