About Me
I decided I wanted to really get healthy the "right way" after I lost my 39 year-old brother in 2007. His death impacted my parents, sister and me in different ways, but I feel encouraged knowing he's in heaven, cheering me on. I miss you, John!!!

Hi there, thank you so much for adding me a friend. One can never have too many people giving encouragements. Though some days may be hard I am going to keep up with my goal because I refuse to give up. I am going to continue to be positive. You do the same. Good luck on your progress.

Sorry to hear your in a "funk", I've certainly been there before, and you never know when that dark cloud will go away. When I go there I try to do some of the small things that will hopefully help me avoid gaining weight, until I can get my head right. I mean like drinking the water and not eating late (I know, easier said than done right). I hope you get your grove back soon. In the meantime smile girl. :)
