So, I wanted my first blog post to be an introduction and informative on my life growing up and the struggles I had. So it won’t be easy to say this since most of it I never even told close family or friends.
I have always been on the heavy side. Never huge. And I carried my weight well. No one would guess I was over 200lbs after my son was born. I’m not sure why no one could tell, I could for sure see it. And I always struggled with how I looked. Even before my son.
So let’s go back to around 10 years old. My problem was on full blast and I was CHUNKY. My parents were desperate. But I would sneak out in the middle of the night and literally scoop powdered sugar into a cup and eat it. I know, GROSS. But that’s what I’m saying. I got caught shoplifting. Wanna know what it was? Jelly beans. I shoplifted Jelly Beans. That was like at 14 I think. Tell me that’s not pathetic. Everything I bought was sugar infused. I would buy Starbucks and my drinks would be extremely sugar packed. Sugar is a massive problem. But no one wants to talk about it.
I’m not going completely sugar free. I’m not trying to complicate my life. I’m trying to make it better. And I want to walk this path with all of you!
