Healthy Moving Momma: Will The Big Girl Please Come Forward? My Story

2011

Being overweight most of my adult life I let it just keep coming on. Instead of dealing with problems, I ate them away. The trouble is that eventually this all catches up with you. One night sitting in the hospital unable to catch my breath due to a severe panic attack I knew things had to change. The line was drawn in the sand. Since then, I've learned to tell people NO and not feel badly about it.I've learned to slow down, quit coffee and NOT eat my troubles away.
I've lost 96 pounds and am not done yet. God has been so faithful in leading me along in this weight loss journey. Praise his name!

I live my healthy life in a small mountain community where I am a Momma to two AMAZING folks. I homeschool my daughter and my little guy is enjoying the preschool life. I blog for a local organization, volunteer at the local library, teach music at the local school, am learning to sew (bit by bit) indulge in country walks, tickle my kiddos, read while taking hot baths and in the down time I help my husband in his job as pastor up here!
My life is amazing and I am living the life I had always hoped for. I wake up each day blessed beyond reason.
