Intro & Proclamation

Hello Friends! I am a 40 year old mother to 3 girls – Emily (17), Jenna (15) & Kari (12). I’ve been married to my junior high sweetheart, Brent, for 19 years and we have been together for 25 years!

I am not where I thought I would be at 40. I am a people pleaser, peacemaker by nature. I have taken all these years to nurture everyone else and in the process, I lost myself and began suffocating under a fat suit that was so unfamiliar. I am morbidly obese and have watched the precious moments be stolen due to the disease. I long to do simple things. I long to … ok, well, let’s not go there just yet, it is still a raw place to be.

The good news is that in January, I started working with a health coach and have lost around 17lbs. Now, that is not much over a 5 mth span, I realize that, but you see, I have tons to lose, so 17 lbs is HUGE! 🙂 I have so much more to do but it is time to reclaim my life. I am embarking on a new journey towards health and wellness, inside and out. The way things are unfolding before me is nothing short of miraculous. The people that are being put on my life’s path is incredible and I do not take a thing for granted. I begin and end each day with heartfelt gratitude. And some day, my story will help others that are in the same struggles, of this I am sure.

Thank you for letting me a part of this group of health seekers, mind, body and soul.
Love & Light!
