I'm 54, the mom of three patriots who have or currently serve our country, and the wife of one very special man! I am the office manager at our church, and both of us are very involved there in church and local ministries.

My weight....pretty much a life-long struggle, but I have always had good self-esteem so I really don't recognize it until I see photos. The past five years the photos have been getting worse and worse, so here I am! Facing reality and facing the fact that I am a sugar and carb addict who needs help! Prayerfully I started this journey in May 2011 and I am so thankful that very quickly I lost my sugar cravings.

Learning to bake and cook in a lower carb way has been a huge factor for success. Working out on a regular basis has been the other factor. My family is very supportive, for this I am blessed!
