Hello, my name is Emily. I have struggled with weight my whole life. When I was a junior in high school, I was at my highest weight which was 236 lbs and a size 22/24W. That's when I decided to change. By the end of my Senior year, I weighed 157 lbs and was a 10/12. I got married to a wonderful man a month before I graduated high school, and then shortly following my graduation I became pregnant.
With my pregnancy, I gained a lot of weight especially in the small time I could keep foods down. I went from weighing 160 lbs to 215 lbs! My daughter was born in April 2010. When she was 3 months old, my husband left for Afghanistan. I moved in with his family who were an amazing support group to me. I went from 215 lbs to 178 lbs while I was there. My husband had to come back early due to medical issues. And 5 months later I am up to 205 lbs. I need to stop making excuses and I need to better myself not only for me but for my family, especially my daughter Caroline.
I love sweets, I love food in general. I'm hoping having this blog, posting what I eat, what work outs I do, will help me. I want to get in shape. I want to make myself a better person and I want to fit back into my pre-mom jeans, and maybe even make them too big for me.
