About Me

I have been over weight my entire life since I was 17 years old.  I'm also very dramatic.

I started my journey of emotional eating when I was 17 years old and had an emotionally and verbally abusive boyfriend.  I hid butter cookies in my room to deal with the hurt and pain of my first love.

If I'd know then what I know now....I would have become a lesbian.

Fast forward 20 odd years later and I'm still eating my feelings.  I'm a sugar addict.

I have tried most every diet plan out there (except for the one's that you have to purchase food...that doesn't work for me, I have a family to cook for).

I did find great success with the hCG diet and lost 30 pounds.  But through the stress of moving and my husband finding a new job....I gained it all back.  I'd do it all again but it was really hard!  EDITED: Oops....I did hCG again.  Lost 13 pounds and have now gained a little bit back.  These fad diets are not for me....I need REAL CHANGE.

January 2013, I've hired Leslie Gail....Health and Life Coach to the stars to help my family make a dramatic transformation.  It's now or never!

May 2013...Life is awesome and stressful!  I just became PTA co-president with my best friend and I'm ready to focus on fixing my hormones! Getting older is hard but I know I can make my golden years the best of my life.  Yes, I'm 42 going on 62....that's what I get for having an old(er) husband.  Join my support group today!
