I am a 35-year-old wife and mom of 2 boys. I started my weight loss journey 2 years ago when a friend was needing some support for his journey with gastric bypass. I started doing the diet for the surgery with him and ended up losing about 70 pounds. Doing this lead me down the road of getting weight loss surgery as well. My gastric bypass was March 2nd, 2022. My highest weight I have known was 401. Surgery day (03/02/2022) I was 334. Currently, I am down to 250. I went from wearing size 30 in pants to 14/16. In this journey I have sparked a passion for fitness and nutrition. I am in school for personal training and to become a health and wellness coach. My end goal is to become a registered dietician and nutritionist so I can help others learn how to properly fuel their bodies. I also am looking into Alternative medicine to add under my belt for a more holistic way of healing.
