This is me: a housewife and mother who wants to WOW everybody!
A child, a diagnosis of PCOS, moving with my husband's career, not eating right or exercising regularly, has caused me to gain weight. I avg. 185-195lbs. In 2007, I had lost 25lbs but gained it all back. Add the stress that each move has created; especially this last one in 2010, I got to be my heaviest at 210lb(100lbs gain from highschool in 20yrs).

(and the Lord willing we may get to stay here for awhile, at least until I can get to my goal!)
We found a health program in Sept 2014 that has helped me and my husband get healthy!! He's off his prescriptions and lost 70lbs so far, I'm off of mine and have lost 30lbs. We feel great!! My PCOS won't plague me anymore!!

Personal Information:
I am a homemaker and we homeschool. I'm past the big 40 now, not sure how to think about that, at times I don't feel like it and other times I feel older. We have only one child (a teenager now) do the the fact I have PCOS, which was not what we planned so that also adds to my moods and stress.
Other Information:
I live in the US and I used to live in the mid south now I live in the mid north.
My husband's job has caused us to move a lot and it is stressful because it changes out of the blue and he gets transfered or laid off. With this comes a lot of stress and moves.
We love being outdoors, hiking, fishing, and just being outside.
We also ride motorcycles.
