Hello there I am new to blogging on here joined today.....I have a total of 97lbs I have struggled all my life with my weight As a child I had leukemia and the steriods that I had to take started adding to my weight and at that time I did not have the greatest eating habits I gained even more weight as I became an adult due to two pregnacies I began having so much trouble with my blood pressure and pain in joints due to my weight...I decided then I was going to make a change AND I did lost 85lbs with a lot of working out changing my eating habits and pure dedication I was at the point of obsession but I looked and felt so good....after about 4 years my health began to go into a different direction I was having all different kinds of Mental illness, which include Bipolar, Schizo, OCD, ADHD, depression, anxiety, Panice attacks The mediciations they put me on had side effects of weight gain and at this point in my life I was so depressed I did not other than sit and cry didnt want to do anything esp working out my desire to do the things as I did before was disminished....Well after 2 years of not being on the right medications would have several relaspes and even having to do inpatient at institutions....Finally switched doctors and my new doctor has me a the right road I am able to function like a "normal" person....I went to my primary doctor and having issues with my blood pressure going up, high cholesterol, and palpations she contributed most of my problem to be the excess weight gain...and she said I would probabaly continue the overweight status due to my meds......But you know what I thought I can do this again it will take time and dedciations So looking for anyone that could help me through my journey I want to prove the doctors wrong and I can and will be at a healthy weight Good Luck on your alls journey who read this
