I am a happily married mother of two beautiful children. I like to try new things and enjoy life to the fullest. I love to cook and more importantly eat which is why I am here.I have gravitated between 155 and 142 pounds since the birth of my children but hope to get my weight in check starting now not only for me but for my kids. I want to be able to not just read them stories about adventures but let them experience them first hand. I am currently at 138 pounds and hope to reach 124 by the end of March. I am taking Ballroom dancing lessons that start in Feb. and I am also thinking of racing in a couple of 10k's as well this year. As soon as the weather gets better my family and I will head south for some much needed kayaking. We are also planning some hiking and fishing at the beginning of March. I believe that a gym is wonderful,and very useful, but nothing can replace the Freedom and Beauty of Nature and all that GOD has created.
