I was very slim when I was a teenager (mainly due to the fact that we couldn't afford food) and when I met my boyfriend, the pounds starting coming. I went from 120 lbs to 200 within a few years. I'm now on the road to fixing myself and I have realized that my weight is highly due to a strong addiction to food. I never had it and when I got it, I just couldn't stop eating! it's time to change that. For me, my boyfriend, and especially my son. I want to be the example he lives up to.
