Born in Brooklyn NY in the 60's we uprooted to South Jersey in the 70's and transplanted to South Carolina five years ago. My highest weight was 246lbs 2yrs ago when I worked for a Latin Themed Mall. I was diagnosed with diabetes and high blood pressure 3 years ago. Now a days it is just me and hubby at home. Basically, I only have to worry about cooking for me since he works with food all day.
