BAYTOWN, Texas -- A Texas lunch lady is 100 pounds lighter after eating her her own cafeteria food every day for a year. 
 
Tammy McRae works at Carver Elementary School in Baytown.
 
McRae started out as a dishwasher and was quickly promoted to cafeteria manager because of her upbeat attitude. 
"I took the job and I initially lost 15 pounds out of nervousness," McRae said.  "I felt so much better after I lost that weight."
 
So in September 2015, at 260 pounds, McRae decided to ditch her junk diet once and for all.
