I guess I am the other other sister!

 

   Hello everyone, my name is Cassie. A little about me, I have been married since April 2010 to a wonderful man named Noe. We have two beautiful little girls, Winry who is 2 and Keely who is almost 6 months old. I work at Walmart and am planning on starting school in February.

     I have always been down on myself for my weight. I got made fun of all through school and it was incredibly hard and has made me fear for my daughters when they go to school. My senior year was the hardest. I was working 2 jobs, one at McDonald s  one at a Mexican restaurant called El Sol. As a result i was always snacking so i gained a lot of weight. So of course i got made fun of more for that. So i decided to do something about it.

       Starting after my senior year i became bulimic  I thought this was the best way to deal with my problem. I started dropping weight and was happy about it, so i kept doing it. at the beginning i started out at over 200 pounds. At the lightest weight i hit 145 pounds. I thought i looked good and was happy about where i was. 

         Little did I know what it was really doing to my body. My husband who was my boyfriend at the time caught on to what i was doing, and convinced me that this was not right. I am thankful everyday for that. While i was skinny my body was starving. my teeth are now horrible and because of the year and a half that i did this i gained back so much more weight.

         I finally got a kick in the butt to do things the right way this time. I am currently on weight watchers and am trying to work out for at least a half hour a day four days a week. I keep telling myself that results take a while. Especially for me, I am trying my best not to get discouraged  I feel better with the amount of water that i am drinking and I am loving working out again. I know that this time around I will keep it off for good. I want to be able to keep up with my family and feel good about myself. I want to be a positive role model that my girls can look up too.
