Transformation Blog

Hi, my name is Kaitlyn. I am 18 years old and a Freshman in college.I am starting this blog in order to change myself.Currently(Feb. 1, 2016), I am 308 pounds. I have been obese for almost half of my life. I started gaining weight rapidly in 2008 when I was 11. The cause for this was that I had been molested by my step father for a number of years. In 2008, I finally realized what had been happening to me. I had this awakening after watching a "bad touch" awareness video in my 5th grade class. As you can guess, this came as a huge shock to me. I told my closest relative at the time, and my-now-ex step father was sent to jail, for life. This whole situation threw me into a deep depression. I even contemplated suicide. I eventually developed a binge eating habit. It made me feel better to eat, and food became my best friend. Through counseling I have gotten over a little of my depression, and I no longer have suicidal thoughts. However, much of my binge eating habit remains. I know that I do it, I just cannot stop myself especially when I hit a low point. I really want to change this though. I NEED to. I am currently diagnosed with PCOS (Poly-cystic Ovarian Syndrome). This can be helped with weight loss, but if I do not do anything I could possibly become infertile. So to start this off I am currently working on 21 day Fix from Team Beachbody. Also, I am a Beachbody coach. I am no pro at exercising, but I give it my all. I will be here sharing my results, my hardships, and my triumphs along the way. If you would like to join me on my fitness journey send me a message and I would be happy to get you involved in the Team Beachbody programs.
