As far back as I can remember I ways always known as the big girl. Although I was bigger than my sister I never considered myself out of shape. I use to love exercise. I use to be in the gym 6 days a week sometimes twice a day. I loved it! It wasn't until I moved

I am a 33 year old single mother of two. My daughter is 15 and my son is 12. I am also a union carpenter and business partner.

As far back as I can remember I ways always known as the big girl. Although I was bigger than my sister I never considered myself out of shape. I use to love exercise. I use to be in the gym 6 days a week sometimes twice a day. I loved it! It wasn't until I moved to Maryland in 2002 that things started to change. It was about 6 months after I moved that I started a new job as a daycare teacher. It was when I needed a new wardrobe that I knew something was wrong. That was when I bought my first size 18 pants. Since then I have been yo-yoing between a size 16-18.

When I moved back to NY and became a carpenter I started to lose a little weight. But that wasn't for long. All of the blt's and pancakes caught up to me. Even though I was moving all day long I wasn't feeding my body properly. I ballooned up to 241. I surpassed my peak pregnancy weight by 41 pounds. How can that be when I don't have another human being inside of me?? My knees hurt right along with my back and hips. I am tired all the time.

So I am not just doing this for me. I'm doing this for my daughter and my family. I tried back in 2006 to start getting in shape. I purchased Turbo Jam and said yes I'm going to do it. I fell off the band wagon. Well I have decided to jump back on full speed! I will succeed!
