In 2017, I had to make a decision between life and death.

I was close to 400 pounds. Literally sick and tired all the time. 

There were two choices: continue to slowly kill myself or try ONE LAST TIME to take my life back.

This is not a "before and after" story. ​Welcome to the long road in between! 

I'm almost 50 years old, a wife, a mother (and new empty nester!), a Walt Disney World geek, and a full-time writer.

I went from being barely able to walk one block to completing a half-marathon. Was I fast? Nope. No part of this journey has been quick or easy.

If you're looking to learn how it's possible to make small changes that can make a huge impact in your life - no gimmicks, no crash diets or anything like that - then you've found the right place. I share my experiences: what works, what doesn't and the roller coaster of emotions that goes along with finding a quality life after years of neglect and unhealthy habits.
