About me

    Welcome! Let me start of by telling you a little bit about myself and explain my decision to start this blog.

   My name is Ericka and I am a mother to 3 littles, two girls(6&3)and one boy(1).I am a full time student in college working toward my A.S. in Radiography. I have struggled with my weight nearly all my life and it most definitely hasn't gotten easier with having 3 littles.
   After the birth of my first (who we will call LM) I lost nearly 80 pounds and was the smallest I had been since I was a child. Through a series of life altering events my weight fluctuated and eventually landed me back at "plus size". I then had my 2nd daughter (who we will call LS) and after her birth lost approx 30 pounds but after about a year gained it back just like before. Then comes my 3rd (who we will call MM) after MM I lost a whopping 50 pounds. MM is turning 1 next week and I have gained all 50 pounds back plus which lands me at * drum roll please* 231 pounds. {lending to the name of the this blog, attacking 231}

  I am hoping that by sharing this struggle publicly I will be more apt to lose the weight and keep it off!

Follow me in this journey as I attack the villain that is stealing my life.
