Some call me a true inspiration, while others say I do not give up. I just think I am trying to get through life like the rest of us. Along the way, I started journaling and added a little humor. What is life without laughs? Join me through the journaling, private thoughts, and my recollection of my transformation. My adventure encompasses losing more than one hundred pounds, running my first half marathon, and even brain surgery There is so much more to losing weight than just the number on the scale. These are my personal feelings. It is honest, raw, and real. It is emotional, sad, and funny. It is ME.
