Yo-Yo

Like many of you big girls out there, my weight has "yo-yoed" over the years. For most of my life I was a skinny girl, but during my senior year and after I graduated from high school I began to gain weight. After my first year of college I lost it all, and then kept it off for a few years, but inevitably, I gained the weight back and then some.

Having your weight yo-yo can be frustrating on so many levels, but fear not, you're NOT alone. Anytime you start to get down on yourself, think of Oprah, Janet, Kirstie, Jessica, and the "Kellys" (Clarkson and Osbourne) who have battled the bulge and yo-yoed over the years...it truly happens to the best of us.
