My name is Alicia. I previously have struggled with weight but was able to lose a ton by running when I was in my twenties.
Alas, I have crept up and now have a BMI of 25. I promised myself to not gain it all back, but have been emotional eating due to grief. In the last two years I have first buried a daughter and then a husband. While this was extremely hard, it enabled me to see the strength I possess and allowed me to realize that I am capable of anything, including losing weight online.
Currently, I am living abroad with my three children and doing volunteer work while enrolled in a Masters of Nursing program. I expect some challenges in this as I am a single mom and am taking care of my children while navigating a foreign environment, however; the amount that I am gaining in committing to my health and personal growth outweighs the negatives.
Thank you for taking the time to read my introduction. I look forward to getting to know you as we move forward in this health improvement endeavor together!
