"Nothing tastes as good as thin feels."
This is the beginning of my journey. A journey in retrospect I wish I had begun sooner, but better late than never. I am a wife and a mom, a daughter, a sister and an aunt. I have wonderful support in my family and I want to be healthy for them as much as for myself. My husband tells me I am beautiful but I don't believe it and on this journey I want to learn to love me.
