You can be active and overweight at the same time, right? Sort of. Growing up, I loved working out – I especially loved swimming. I never actually worried about my weight or what I ate because I was so active. My doctors, however, were concerned. I used my high-energy as an excuse to eat whatever I wanted — I loved boxed macaroni and cheese and fries (though, not together), and was blissfully unaware of how much they were negatively affecting my health.

Oftentimes, we are blessed in life with opportunities that allow us to reach our full potential, and for me, that blessing was fitness. As a child, I was obese from the young age of seven, and I continued to struggle with my weight throughout my teenage years. Based on my unstable upbringing, I could have become a statistic and gone down a hard, reckless road. But, I overcame all stereotypes and came out on top. While it wasn’t an easy journey, it was one that made me stronger and appreciative of what my mind and body are capable of achieving. Here’s my story:
