Basically, this is all about my weight loss journey and mission to get and remain healthy. So many people have asked me what I've done to lose 100 pounds in a year, so I'm sharing my story. All of my successes as well as my failures and the lessons learned. Hopefully I inspire more people to make the necessary changes to live long, healthy lives.

How'd I Get To Be So Fat??
I wish I could give some elaborate and extreme story about me getting so heavy. Some people claim to be emotional eaters: When they’re stressed they eat constantly, or not at all. This isn’t me, not in the least bit. The reason I got to 331 pounds is that I’d like to eat, plain and simple. You put some cookies in my face, you could’ve pretty much consider them gone. I was an OD snacker like nobody’s business. I remember the good ol days when I ate at least two entire packages of Double stuffed Oreo’s A DAY! Man cookies were like my crack, real talk. I was the real-life version of the cookie monster. You couldn’t stop me from getting my fix. That’s probably why I had so many cavities all that damn chocolate but it was hmm hmm good. Before I got on my health kick, I ate whatever I wanted when I wanted. In high school my daily lunch was three slices of pepperoni pizza, three sugar cookies, and a orange pineapple twister (five days a week mind you). Then I’d go home and have some fried chicken, macaroni and cheese and cornbread and of course wash it down with my sprite remix aruba jam (that sounds like a stereotype but I’m just saying). My mom tried to get me to eat healthier, so I pretended to go along with her little plan. So we would eat the grilled chicken and veggies at the table, then I would rush to my room, check under my bed, and hit up my stash of little debbies snacks. Sad but true. This kind of foolishness would go on for a few years too many……
