Welcome to Elizabeth-town
Hi, my name is Elizabeth! Welcome to my Sparkpage! I have been overweight pretty much my entire life, but I'm on my way to changing that. I discovered Spark People over six years ago now. I haven't used it consistently over that period of time, but I sure do better at reaching my goals when I do!

Hi, my name is Elizabeth! Welcome to my Sparkpage! I have been overweight pretty much my entire life, but I'm on my way to changing that. I discovered Spark People over six years ago now. I haven't used it consistently over that period of time, but I sure do better at reaching my goals when I do!
I'm a lawyer, a liberal, a lover of books, a scrapbooker and crafter! I do my lawyering in Charlotte, NC, and recently worked for Organizing for America as their Voter Protection Director for my region. You'll find me at the YMCA a lot, doing cardio funk and water aerobics. I've lost about 70 lbs. so far, but I'm pushing to reach that next huge milestone-- 100 lbs!
