I was fat kid who grew into an overweight adult. I was laughed at for being heavier than the other kids, me feeling shy. I tried several diets, but worked, and I gaining weight. Another factor my weight gain was my love for cooking, especially rich, high-fat desserts, which I enjoyed preparing and, of course, eating.

When I finished high school at the age of 18, I weighed 215 pounds. the self-confidence to go to a new, faraway school, I decided to stay close to home instead of going away to college. I continued with my unhealthful eating habits and felt more miserable as the weight came on, but I did nothing about it except buy larger plus-size clothes.

My turning point came 10 years later at a friend's New Year's Eve party when I was at my all-time highest weight of 330 pounds. I caught my in a mirror and the truth hit me: I was overweight and unhealthy, and unless I did something about it now, I would only get bigger and .

I lost 165 pounds over the next two years. I had many ups and downs. I was determined to go on. Another challenge to me was not to beat myself up if I ate something that was unhealthy and to take it as a sign to abandon my healthful habits. Instead I vowed to start again and always keep my goal in mind.
