I'm 47 years old and my goal is to eat right, get healthy, and lose 40 lbs. I live in Burlington, Washington and have lived here since 1997. I lived in California for most of my adult life with a few years in Japan and Utah. I have two children, Melissa is 22 and has a son, Gavin, who you can see me holding all teary eyed. Ian is 16 and in high school. He knows it all. One of these days I'm going to send him to work instead of me because he has it all figured out! I have a significant other, Donn, whom I love more than anything. And I have 2 pugs, Ivan and Pumba, and one cats, Spooky. Oreo passed away a month ago. I woke up,went downstairs and he was gone. It still upsets me. I've been divorced for 5 years. I like to make cloth dolls and my latest obsession is doll houses. Donn (SO) and I are making a dollhouse together. My main goal here on SparkPeople is to be healthier. I have been working on my eating habits and exercising habits since 2/13/07. I've lost 32.5 lbs since then. :) I've changed my eating habits DRASTICALLY since then and have quit smoking. I've also started walking daily and have been gradually trying to increase the length of my walks.
