Hello, my name is Michelle and I'm on a weight loss journey. I am happily married and have three great kids! I love to read, be outdoors, cook, garden, and scrapbook, pen pal, write fics, and much more!

Hello, my name is Michelle and I'm on a weight loss journey. I am happily married and have three great kids! I love to read, be outdoors, cook, garden, and scrapbook, pen pal, write fics, and much more!
When I started my weight loss joureny in August of 2007 I never imagined how many ups and downs I would have. From the start till September of 2010 I lost 56 pounds. I did it by cutting out regular soda, watching what I ate and exercising.
From September of 2010 to June 2012 I had 4 abdominal surgeries. During this time I gained back 29 of the pounds I had lost and also lost a lot of my strength and stamina that I had gained from the exercise. Between surgeries I would lose and gain the same 10 or so pounds and have felt very frustrated with weight loss and fitness in general.
But I know that everyday is a new day and that I can do this. And I will. I am now back down 9 pounds (that would be 35 lbs since starting in 2007) and I am hoping to not have any more surgeries. I plan on re-losing the other 20 pounds I had lost and lose 40-50 more after that!! I can do it!
I've recently gained quite a bit of my original loss back due to having 2 surgeries within 6 months of one another am currently fighting to re-lose those pounds and also lose the extra 41 in my original goal!
