I am Nichole, Happily Married to my high school sweetheart. We have a son and daughter they happen to be twins and we are really blessed to have them. The good thing and bad thing about my WLS is that I have the support I need.
My hubby has seen me at my cute little high school size when I was rocking a 12/14 comfortably. I mean I know that is still big for a high school gal but still. I had a cute butt and Double D’s what else can I ask for?!?! But over the years as happy as we were, I was equally happy putting the pounds on.
Before you know it we are “trying” to have kids and having difficulty. My obgyn told me well being 300lbs will cause a big reason why you aren’t getting prego and you need to loose weight. I was on a mission. I am really good at dieting. I could be a professional. I loose 30-60lbs and I can gain them right back in less time. We had our kids and I was on the best diet ever “Sleep Depravation” I lost 63 lbs in 3 months! Yeah that’s right. I was able to eat whatever I wanted for dinner while I never ate anything during the day. The twins slept…I slept…the twins ate; mommy drank water and fed the babies and went back to bed.
Now I have twin toddlers and I am more than motivated to get these lbs off forever. I want to be so active that my kids never are disappointed in me or never think “We can’t do it…b/c mommy can’t.”
Luckily, I am really healthy. No diabetes, no high blood pressure, no sleep apnea and no hurting body parts. Please…I did Vegas in February and when I say I did it… I am not your average big girl at all; some girls understand that they are bigger so they avoid situations. I never have. I dance on bars; shake my butt, bounce up on it and much more! For some reason in my head I am a Brunette Barbie. I am still trying to figure out why I shop in the Plus Size Section. That is so my first goal. To get out of the 3rd floor that’s put away in the dark; however the flashing neon that says “PLUS/BIG GIRLS ONLY”
I love life and love feeling blessed! Now it’s time to make what I feel on the inside apparent on the outside!
