Hey all,

I'm almost done with secondaries but have a few left. I'm stumped on the essay about overcoming a personal challenge that I faced. I have had a few challenges, but unsure which one to write about.

1st challenge
- When I was 13, my dad (sole provider) lost his job, and I got a job with my friend's dad at a bike shop and worked there for 3 years to help my family with money.

2nd challenge
- I was severely overweight Junior/Senior years of high school and was always bullied about it. Eventually decided to change and lose the weight (60+ lbs), and that has evolved into a passion for fitness and health.

Would appreciate any thoughts or insights!

Thank you!!!

Try for something that happened when you were older, though 2 would be fine.

I would be fine with #2 if you stay focused on becoming healthier. It could be a different issue if you are talking about overcoming bullying.
