I am a happily devoted wife and mother. I married my elementary school sweetheart. We have known each other 21 years. We have 2 sons. My interests include cooking, baking, writing recipes and writing poetry. If I could tell you one thing about myself that I'm proud of, it would be loosing the weight and keeping it off. In 2005 I weighed at least 210 lbs., I stopped looking when the scale hit 200. Due to life's challenges, I was troubled. I learned I needed to take the focus off certain things and place it back on myself and my children. I re-evaluated my goals, ate better, established an exercise routine and kept the kids involved. I lost 80 lbs. that year, kept it off and continue to loose more. I am proof it can be done without programs and pills. You can have happiness when you learn that you need to first make yourself happy.
