I am every woman in America who obsesses about being overweight! In reality, my name is Tahira Nyabinghi, and I am a 39 year old female, residing in Raleigh. Each day, I awaken and truly love what I do for a living but when I look in the mirror, I see a Queen wrapped in the body of a creampuff! I am a supervisor for the AmeriCorps VISTA program with the City of Raleigh and spend my days with some incredible volunteers. At last weigh in, I tipped the scales at 230 lbs. Now, for many citizens, this is acceptable, but for a 5-foot 3-inch, in heels, pretty multiracial female, it is positively obese! 
I tried Weight Watchers/Slim Fast/Lemonade/Grapefruit/3 Day diet plans-all failed….I am ready to do whatever I need mentally/physically/lifestyle wise to drop this extra person who adds 110 lbs to my minimal frame.
Me in a nutshell, today…230 lbs, tomorrow 120 lbs, achievable with a RawFoods lifestyle and exercise. Let the New Year Begin!!!!!!!
