Dawn-eldest child-I have always been overweight. The last time I weighed 120 lbs was in 6^th grade. The reason I think that we should win this challenge is because I am ready to face WHY and take the necessary steps to make the changes in my diet-spiritual, emotional and physical. My motivation is to be healthier, to get off of insulin, to lose the belly fat and thereby take pressure off of my low back. I had a car accident 2 years ago that resulted in back surgery and it’s been a long recovery and I have come a long way, but I feel that my excess weight does hold me back from complete healing.

 Carol-middle child-Typical yo yo dieting and some health issues on top of that definitely affected my metabolism. I have a wonderful husband who is a soldier in the army and a 18 year old and they are my main motivations. I enjoy living life and I approach everything with enthusiasm. My main hobby right now is my mini cooper and losing weight will make my adventures easier and fun as my health will be improved with the weight loss.

Jessie-youngest child-Actually, I grew up not really having a weight problem. I was pretty slender right up until after my marriage. Once the weight came on, it has been difficult to take off and keep off. Yo Yo dieting and exercising. My motivation to lose weight is to look and feel better.
