Sparking my way to a healthy lifestyle!
I used to want to lose weight for all the wrong reasons.
Now I'm older and wiser and I have finally embraced the idea that weight loss is all about getting healthy. There is an alarmingly high rate of Type 2 Diabetes in my family and now is my chance to avoid it.
I love life and I am learning to love myself wholeheartedly and give myself the health that I deserve.

I'm a vegetarian but my husband and son are not. My husband is lactose intolerant and my son is allergic to cows milk, so I have been modifying the way that I cook to accommodate both of their needs. Vegan cooking is a great solution. I'm always on the lookout for yummy, healthy vegan recipes.
Many of my goals are focused on getting organized. I believe that clearing clutter from my home and my mind will help me on the path to getting healthy!
There is strength in numbers so feel free to stop by, say hello and add me as a friend!

Personal Information:
I turned 40 this year and I want to celebrate with a stronger, healthier body!
April marked my third year on Spark. I had a baby in 2010 and two surgeries earlier this summer so I took a break for a while but now I'm back and I'm serious about losing weight again.
Other Information:
I am participating in the Springing to Action Challenge and I'm very proud to be a member of the Bahama Mamas team!
I made great progress during the Falling For Fitness Challenge and I can't wait to see what I can achieve this spring!
