1. I was morbidly obsese the majority of my life. It wasn’t until 3 years ago that I realized I needed help. Real medical help. I had bariatric surgery and it changed my life forever. 2. I’m embarrassed to tell people what I do for “work” when they ask. Most of the time I say I’m a stay at home mom, but truth is this gig IS a full time job for me- but most people don’t understand the influencer life. 3. I have never, ever done a single drug in my life NOR smoked a cigarette. 4. I am really trying to expand my page outside of “just” bariatric surgery. My weightloss does not define me. I’m well into maintenance and really living a very normal life now that is not surrounded by weightloss talk. I know I have so much more to offer than just “this”. 4. I definitely have OCD tendencies. I like things done a certain way, put away a certain way, placed a certain way- and if it’s not done the way I like, it will drive me crazy until I switch it. 5. I have my BSN in nursing and plan to never go back. Nursing just isn’t what it used to be. In hindsight, I would have picked a different degree. But we can’t change the past. 6. I’m not an animal lover. Believe it or not, we have 2 dogs whom I love dearly, but if it was up to me- we wouldn’t have any pets. 7. I honestly don’t have a ton of friends. And I’m perfectly okay with that! 8. I struggle with comparison. I want to be the best at everything I do, and when I’m not- it eats me to my core.
