Hola!

My name is not really Buttercup, it is Jessica. I live in northern Alabama and recently graduated with a BA in Elementary Education w/ minor in Spanish. I am currently looking for a job because the market here is HORRIBLE. I am currently horrified when I see pictures of myself and WANT to make a difference.

I am at my highest weight right now and need to make this a life change! I am a binge-eater, plus I am very hard on myself when I do anything (which doesn't help when I make a mistake). I am currently trying to change this CRAZY mentality that I have of making mistakes. I am currently doing Atkins because it is what WORKED for me. I have ALWAYS had a weight problem and thought I was fat when I was normal (OOOOO....society).

My passion is teaching, traveling and learning about various cultures around our world. I am still waiting to meet my best friend/prince charming...............

so the story continues......
