I like to think of myself as a professional multi-tasker, world-traveler, earth-caretaker, mother, daughter, sister, wife on a spiritual journey.  Not necessarily in that order and sometimes all at once. 

• 30 lbs lighter and loving it!

  I challenged myself on January 1, 2009 to loose 50 lbs this year.  Its 6 months and I'm now more than half way to my goal!  I've done every diet imaginable before this, used every tool, book and program there is.  What's the difference this time?  I'm doing it for me.  Not for someone else's approval and not for some level of unattainable beauty.  I kept a journal that helped keep me honest, I actually got back to weighing and measuring my food to make sure they were appropriate portions and I enlisted the aid of my doctor to ensure my methods were healthy and sustainable.  So far, so good.
