about me

I am a Single mother to a 9 year old boy. I live in Florida with my mother, son, and boyfriend. I am a senior in college and will graduate in December with a B.S. in Criminal Justice and a certificate in Victim advocacy.

Update!!!!

This is my mother and I at my graduation. 60 pounds lighter and a college graduate



My favorite "cookbook" is recipezaar. I have spent a lot of time her since I first discovered it and never miss a chance to recommend it. My passions change but right now they are family, cooking,eating healthy, and getting lots of activity in.

In March I started weight watchers and working out 30 minutes a day and lost over 50 pounds. I spent a lot of time making and eating all the great recipes here on zaar but it did take its toll! Just as I used zaar to gain weight (by making heavy recipes and not moving around much) I used zaar to lose the weight too! I started asking questions in the low fat forum and the fabulous forum hosts ( Shirl (J) 831 and justcallmetoni)answered so many of my questions and got me started. I eventually even got to meet one of them! Here is a picture of me with the lowfat forum host justcallmetoni!


I then noticed a thread mydesigirl started in the community cafe about weight watchers and joined. The thread really snow balled and turned into a great support group for all that are trying to lose weight or maintain a healthy lifestyle. We talk about the ups and downs of dieting, recipes, products, trying to stay motivated, etc. I am really grateful to all my WW buddies and everyone who has been supportive . I am not at goal yet so I am still going strong! I have a strapless dress in my closet that I am dying to get into but doesn't quite fit yet. When it fits all will be right in the world. LOL.

Favorite Foods:

My favorite dishes to cook are holiday meals. I love having the time to really put together a feast! I love pretty much everything besides organ meats, super spicy food, fried eggs, and hummus. This list is subject to change. My favorite restaurant in Straub's seafood.
