I began my life as an adult as a very small woman.  104 pounds wringing wet.  Then I got pregnant.  My baby was huge and I stayed huge.  I gained over 50 pounds and over the years kept adding to it through three pregnancies.

As I get older I’m experiencing health problems due to the excess weight — diabetes, high blood pressure, extra pressure on my joints — and it’s time to do something about it.  I don’t want to retire and have a miserable life.  I’m still young inside!
