Most of my life I was obese & have been struggling with health issues due to being obese. I almost did not make it alive to the emergency room with just 22% oxygen on May 9, 2008 which disabled me not to be able to work for the past five years. I had high blood pressure, diabetic, OCPD, COPD, asthma, & lung disease called Bronchiectasis, and back problems which led me to a major back surgery just three weeks ago. I went from weighing 307 pounds (size 30-32/4x) to 135 pounds in less than a year wearing a size small. During this time I attended the University of Phoenix and did my AA in Healthcare Administration & now finishing my Bachelor in Human Services Management. Today I feel wonderful about my accomplishments and proud I made it through all of this. It was not easy, but with determination, friends & family support, prayer, God, and will power I have made it through it all! I am 48 years old, therefore it is never to late to change your life! Just believe in yourself and no matter how impossible a situation may look or seem; nothing is impossible if you are willing.
