Anna’s health and weight have been constant problems. She has to take a pill every day to keep her thyroid under control. She tried and failed at many diets. It was especially difficult after having her first child. She wanted and needed to lose 50 pounds. “I would look at pictures of my daughter, and I was grimacing about how I looked in the pictures,” she said. Anna found a web site that helped her come up with a dietary plan. She intentionally counted calories and went onto the web site and logged her activity. “Losing 50 pounds was a blessing. I found a way to stand out and give God the glory,” she said.
