Introduction

I am Jessica.  I am 28 years old.  I have four kids and had those four kids in five years.  I never gave my body a break or a chance to recover and the pounds just kept packing on this poor body of mine.  Before I knew it there I was with 150 lbs to lose.  That's right 150.  You may be thinking what I am thinking.  How the heck does a person get to that point?  I don't have the answer for you, but I will say this.  Even at the my highest weight I still love myself.  I am freakin' awesome.  I am hilarious even if I am the only one who laughs at my jokes.  I am entertaining.  I am talented, but not really with anything important.  I can see the good in other people and I can do anything I put my mind to.  I struggle with my weight.  I'm not perfect and I never will be because I'm human. I don't want to be one of those people who lives and breaths all things fitness.  I want to be normal.  I want to not talk about my "relationship" with food.  I want to just be me and I want me to be healthy.  I think a lot of people can identify with that, so here I am documenting my journey.  Jess's journey, if you will.;)
