Introduction Text I am 34 years old and I'm trying to make me and my health a priority again. I have fallen into the age old trap of getting on and then off the wagon, but I am hoping that with my hubby helping to motivate me, I can do this I lost my mother when I was 18 and it made me stop caring about my health a lot. I know that being healthy is important and I want to get back into the swing of things so to speak. I also want to learn how to do it on my own since before my Mom made me be healthy by making me eat what she cooked and I was happier so I was more active. I am so happy that Sparkpeople exists since there are so many tools on this site to help me achieve my goals. :) I have technically been a member of Sparkpeople since 2007 but I've been an on again off again member. This time I will go at my own pace and try not to be perfectionistic about it. If I fall down, I will get back up and start again. I am going to take as long as it takes to improve my health and get a hold on loving who I am now and as I improve. :) I lost track after losing 40 lbs from July - Dec 2012. I gained back some of it and have been fluctuating a bit, but was nowhere near my high when I had an on again moment in 2015. However, after having finally gotten a scale and gotten my mental health a little more in check, I am going to be removing any tracking and goals and measurements so I can start fresh. I can do this. I know I can. 2020 is my year!

I'm from Cardigan, PEI, Canada and I'm now living in Charlottetown PEI. I am single and I have been working on my mental health lately. I also joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in March 2014. Ask me questions if you want to know more about me.

I love any Disney movie and any dance movie (so far). I love to read, sing, act and dance. I was in Triple Threats for a year or two when I was younger. I took dance lessons for about 12 years straight and then another 3 years on and off. I taught dance on and off from Jan 2006 to Aug 2009.
