I find this part very difficult, because over the years I have found that I have become someone that I know longer recognize. Let me explain. I have a disease -the disease to please. I am not exactly sure when I lost myself but I ended up doing things that I did not enjoy (don't get me wrong, I like to help people but it took over my life). I use to be a singer. I loved it, but when I was I find this part very difficult, because over the years I have found that I have become someone that I know longer recognize. Let me explain. I have a disease -the disease to please. I am not exactly sure when I lost myself but I ended up doing things that I did not enjoy (don't get me wrong, I like to help people but it took over my life). I use to be a singer. I loved it, but when I was approached by my family to get a real job, I said ok. I ended up working in health for 14 years. This ended up being my life. I broke up with my ex and gained more weight. Working 15 hour shifts, not seeing my family, working holidays and when I saw my friends they told me that I have aged with my job- not exactly what you want to hear when you are 27 (at the time).
I became depressed, I stopped going out with friends, singing, going to concerts and I was miserable!. I did not want anyone to see me. I wanted to work in the music industry and lost my way. I decided to go back to school for music business and loved it but I needed to work and ignored my dream career. I lost all focus on what I wanted to accomplish.
Now as 40 is almost here and working 3 jobs, I felt I have to do something about myself, but before I lose weight I had to face my emotional demons (which I am working on).
I am fed up of feeling fat and someone I cared about told me he thought I was beautiful, but was not attracted to me, because of how I looked. I was crushed. "A BIG GIRL", I cannot tell how may times I've heard that or you have a pretty face -personally I hate hearing that.
I realized I've been neglecting myself and it was time to be a little selfish. Then one day on tv once again I saw the 10 minute trainer and I just ordered it.
Being fat was my way of being invisible and kept me isolated from people hurting me but I no longer want to be lonely or to be the buddy or one of the guys, I want to feel good about myself, look hot and not be ashamed of people looking at me. I want energy, happiness and overall quality of life.

As I am striving towards my fitness goal, i am excited for my weight loss journey. I know it will be tough and trying ,but am willing to try because I am worth it.
I believe it's bad enough to hear people ridicule you about your weight. I have always been active since I was a young girl but my first recollection that i was told i was fat, is when my dad and my sister use to tell me I was, and they weren't diplomatic about it.
I started dieting because my mother started to put me on them. I was on diets such as drinking herbs,cabbage diet,weight watchers,Richard Simmons, Diet pills, controlling my food intake, Susan Powter (stop the Insanity) and weight watchers.
As I approached my 30ʼs, I started to worry about the complications of obesity, like diabetes, heart disease, and hip fractures. I now suffer from hypertension, arthritis, damaged my ankle from a bad brake and my body aches from years of carrying too much weight around. I identify with the risks of obesity and this is not pleasurable. I believe that my health is deteriorating because of my weight.
I have started to go out for walks, swimming classes, biking,yoga and for fun took up belly dancing. I go to the gym (got a trainer) and also rejoined weight watchers. I am working hard and have the support this time, plus my beachbody coach Linette has been great. I am commited and motivated this time and looking forward to a new me.
