Where my journey began...
Hi! I'm Heather. Welcome to A Fat 2 Fit Mom. I'm a 42 year old wife and mother. I am married to an amazing man, the true love of my life. Together we have 4 beautiful children, three sons and a daughter. I'm a Christian and I am building my Faith and my relationship with Jesus every day.
As a child, I was blessed to be fairly healthy and trim. I stayed that way until my mid 20's. Then, as my jobs and lifestyle changed, and as I had more and more children, the weight seemed to keep building. I went from working at a job for a local theme park, walking and standing all day long, to a job where I am seated all day long.
In the past 17 years, I have gained 77 pounds. On July 28, 2014, I weighed in at 202 lbs. Not quite my highest weight ever, but close enough. At 5'6'', that puts me in the "obese" catagory. Though I detest that term, it was certainly an eye opener for me.
What is my goal? To be 150 lbs. What am I going to do to reach that goal? Eat healthier, exercise more, and no matter what, don't give up!
