At 62 years YOUNG! I’m living my very best life with my amazing husband Ken. My children are all grown and I’m a grandmother to Elias Daniel, my heartbeat. 

But my story wasn’t always so pretty. When I was pregnant with my second child I was in my late 30’s and was considered high risk.

At the beginning of my 2nd trimester, I was experiencing contractions and was diagnosed with Preterm Labor and immediately placed on bed rest. Because I was sedentary for the remainder of my pregnancy I gained over 60lbs. 

After giving birth to my beautiful daughter Lundyn, I immediately fell into a depression. Looking in the mirror I didn’t recognize that girl; I was once a size 6 is now a size 16 I was mortified! I didn’t like looking in mirrors.

After 6 weeks it was time to return to work. I figured in 6 weeks I would be back in my corporate size 6 suits; quite the contrary, a size 11. I cried like a baby and became more depressed because now everyone would see what a failure I’d become.

After returning to work my team was very supportive but I could see the look in their eyes. I had one friend comment, that he didn’t think my body could support that much weight! At that point, I became angry and decided to get off my BUTT and change my story!

I decided to get back in the gym. I hired a trainer, and started The Cabbage Diet (I lost my first 10lbs). I was on my way. I had my incentive jeans. I put them on and they stopped at my knees and I cried! But I didn’t get discouraged; I started fighting harder. I put the jeans on and they stopped at my thighs. I thought we’ll they’re passed my knees. Next, they were past my hips but I couldn’t zip them. FINALLY, I was able to zip them and then they became too BIG!!

A few months later I threw a party and invited everyone to see my transformation and in that moment I knew I wanted to help people. I also became more empathetic to women who struggled with their weight. I never understood the battle until I was faced with the challenge of losing weight.
