00:06:06,586 my comfort is food. 112 00:06:08,517 --> 00:06:11,758 My biological father was an alcoholic. 113 00:06:11,793 --> 00:06:14,413 But, my mom was always there. 114 00:06:14,448 --> 00:06:16,310 My mother was a wonderful woman. 115 00:06:17,344 --> 00:06:20,000 My mom married my stepdad when I was four. 116 00:06:21,344 --> 00:06:23,758 I mean, we were pretty close at first, 117 00:06:23,793 --> 00:06:25,068 and I called him "dad" 118 00:06:25,103 --> 00:06:27,137 and every Sunday we went to church. 119 00:06:27,620 --> 00:06:28,517 In fact, 120 00:06:29,103 --> 00:06:31,310 him and I sang in church. 121 00:06:31,344 --> 00:06:33,172 He played the guitar and we sang. 122 00:06:34,310 --> 00:06:36,068 We'd sing all kinds of songs, 123 00:06:36,103 --> 00:06:40,103 and our favorite one was "The Old Rugged Cross". 124 00:06:40,758 --> 00:06:43,689 My mom loved that one. 125 00:06:43,724 --> 00:06:47,482 In fact, the day before she passed away, it was on a Monday, 126 00:06:47,517 --> 00:06:50,000 I remember, we went to church that Sunday. 127 00:06:50,655 --> 00:06:52,931 And we sang for that day. 128 00:06:52,965 --> 00:06:56,344 But, the next thing I know, my mom was gone. 129 00:06:57,310 --> 00:06:59,827 My stepdad, he started doing crimes, 130 00:06:59,862 --> 00:07:02,000 and he got caught. 131 00:07:02,034 --> 00:07:03,896 And ended up, he went to prison. 132 00:07:05,862 --> 00:07:08,827 The world didn't seem right without my mother. 133 00:07:09,689 --> 00:07:11,379 After I buried my mom, 134 00:07:11,413 --> 00:07:13,241 I couldn't function. 135 00:07:13,275 --> 00:07:15,034 I kept getting more depressed, 136 00:07:15,068 --> 00:07:19,206 and the more depressed I got, the more I ate. 137 00:07:19,241 --> 00:07:22,068 And I just kept eating, and eating, and eating and eating. 138 00:07:25,241 --> 00:07:26,827 If I had picked up something, 139 00:07:26,862 --> 00:07:30,068 I couldn't just lay it down without eating it all. 140 00:07:31,551 --> 00:07:34,379 I just didn't know what to do with myself. 141 00:07:34,413 --> 00:07:36,379 I just, I figured if I'd just sit there, 142 00:07:37,758 --> 00:07:38,758 that I could just... 143 00:07:39,689 --> 00:07:42,827 wither away and the Lord would take me, 144 00:07:42,862 --> 00:07:45,034 and I could go be with my mom. 145 00:07:45,068 --> 00:07:47,068 But, it didn't work that way. 146 00:07:47,103 --> 00:07:50,206 I was gaining the weight because I was eating more 147 00:07:50,241 --> 00:07:53,931 because I was depressed and it was a vicious cycle. 148 00:07:55,034 --> 00:07:56,896 After my mother passed, 149 00:07:56,931 --> 00:08:02,206 when I was 13 or 14, I weighed around 250. 150 00:08:03,724 --> 00:08:05,586 So, that's when I realized, 151 00:08:05,620 --> 00:08:07,586 I gotta do something with my health. 152 00:08:08,931 --> 00:08:11,068 When I got into high school, 153 00:08:11,103 --> 00:08:12,965 I joined ROTC. 154 00:08:14,586 --> 00:08:18,758 And I was big, but I wasn't "big". 155 00:08:18,793 --> 00:08:22,931 We were always marching with our uniforms and our rifles. 156 00:08:23,724 --> 00:08:26,793 And we would march and practice 157 00:08:26,827 --> 00:08:30,448 three or four hours a day in Texas heat. 158 00:08:30,482 --> 00:08:32,724 I would lose a lot of weight during that. 159 00:08:32,758 --> 00:08:36,102 When I would get up and have to put my uniform on, 160 00:08:36,136 --> 00:08:40,241 and go to ROTC, it was I was going to my safe haven. 161 00:08:40,275 --> 00:08:41,827 We all hung out together. 162 00:08:41,861 --> 00:08:44,965 We'd go to football games and after game parties. 163 00:08:46,482 --> 00:08:51,172 In fact, my fiance and I were in ROTC together. 164 00:08:51,206 --> 00:08:54,586 Russell was always the one that was there to make sure that I was okay 165 00:08:54,620 --> 00:08:55,758 and that I was safe. 166 00:08:56,827 --> 00:08:58,827 He always kept me right with him. 167 00:08:59,758 --> 00:09:02,448 He always protected me. 168 00:09:02,482 --> 00:09:05,310 But it wasn't mine and his time yet. 169 00:09:06,517 --> 00:09:08,862 Right out of high school, I married Jesse. 170 00:09:08,896 --> 00:09:11,793 I knew not to, I knew I shouldn't have. 171 00:09:11,827 --> 00:09:14,137 That's probably why I didn't go to... 172 00:09:14,172 --> 00:09:15,655 be a doctor or a lawyer, 173 00:09:15,689 --> 00:09:18,551 because I did get married and ended up pregnant. 174 00:09:18,586 --> 00:09:20,827 And that was Christopher, he lives in Arizona. 175 00:09:21,724 --> 00:09:24,482 Jesse, my son's dad, 176 00:09:24,517 --> 00:09:27,275 I'm not saying Jesse was a bad person. 177 00:09:27,310 --> 00:09:29,620 Jesse was a good person. 178 00:09:29,655 --> 00:09:32,482 I mean, he just had his demeanor. 179 00:09:32,517 --> 00:09:36,103 We were married for seven years. 180 00:09:36,137 --> 00:09:38,310 And it was fun when we first got together. 181 00:09:39,068 --> 00:09:42,724 And then we divorced. 182 00:09:42,758 --> 00:09:45,344 When it ended, it didn't affect me at all, 183 00:09:45,379 --> 00:09:47,448 'cause I knew I shouldn't have done it. 184 00:09:48,206 --> 00:09:50,103 I just did it out of stupidity. 185 00:09:51,344 --> 00:09:53,931 I worked at a daycare center, 186 00:09:53,965 --> 00:09:56,689 and I could take my son with me. 187 00:09:56,724 --> 00:09:58,827 Yeah, I worked there for four years. 188 00:09:58,862 --> 00:09:59,724 Enjoyed it. 189 00:10:08,137 --> 00:10:09,896 Then I was at the auto shop, 190 00:10:09,931 --> 00:10:13,172 and I went to pick my car up and Ray was there. 191 00:10:14,379 --> 00:10:16,310 Well, we started talking. 192 00:10:16,344 --> 00:10:17,827 He asked me out. 193 00:10:18,482 --> 00:10:19,724 I said yeah. 194 00:10:19,758 --> 00:10:24,517 We knew each other for maybe three months and got married. 195 00:10:24,551 --> 00:10:26,862 And it lasted for 15 years. 196 00:10:26,896 --> 00:10:28,517 We had a good marriage. 197 00:10:32,413 --> 00:10:35,482 It just, it didn't work out between him and I because... 198 00:10:36,758 --> 00:10:40,000 He decided he wanted to start sleeping around 199 00:10:40,034 --> 00:10:44,034 with my best friend of 22 years. 200 00:10:45,137 --> 00:10:46,275 That liked to have killed me 201 00:10:46,310 --> 00:10:48,310 because I had no one in my life. 202
