Watch Me Shrink (My Fitness Journey)

Finding Healthy Me
Me Today! Be the change you want to see!

At 23 years old I was slowly and unconsciously commiting suicide.I was killing myself and I could feel it as I hauled my then 350 pound body up a small flight of stairs. Maybe it was the early Mcdonalds runs or the late night delivery affairs. Who knows? The truth of the matter is I was fighting a long time food addiction and in the fall of 2012 I had come into my truth, food was killing me and I was letting it! 2012 was a big year for everyone around me that I loved. I watched both of my parents lose over 100 pounds and my bestfriend slim down as well,mean while I watched in envy from the sidelines and drowned my self in anything salty, fat or sweet. I always wondered when and how anyone reached there breaking point and began fighting back and losing a immense amount of weight. For me it was a summer day in July 2012 at the cleveland zoo with my 1 year old niece and sister. I remember being so out of breath walking from the parking lot to the zoo entrance and embrassed asking my sister to catch the train because I was to out of shape to walk up hill to see the rest of the animals in the zoo. I spent the rest of the day in pain as I pushed my nieces stroller because my knees and lower back screamed in pain with every step I took.

Although I had reached my breaking point in July 2012 it wasn't until November 2012 I started coming to terms with my food addiction. It all started with a phone call from a  good friend of mine Alecia White. For about a year I watched my friend Alecia change her life and lose weight through documenting her weightloss journey on Facebook.One day I wrote her on facebook and said I wanted to talk to her because I was ready to change and we did for about an hour on the phone. I may or may not have told her this several times but her phone call saved my life. In the hour that we spoke we laughed, I cried and she motivated me to make the change.
