Introduction Text I've been on and off Spark for quite a few years now (had another page for several years before this one) and it is time to be back on. In the last few months a diagnosis of fibromyalgia and all the fun that goes with that has rocked my world in a not so rockin' fashion. I am hanging in and determined to fight, but at times it seems a losing battle. The good news is that I have been following a low carb plan for over 2 months and other than the aches, pains and fatigue of the fibro, I really do feel much better. I am going to overcome this, but I need to be here as part of that plan.

My goal is to lose 80 lbs and to feel better and enjoy my life more! I want to be a "trophy wife" for my wonderful husband (this is my dream, not his.)

I know that I need to focus on a low carb diet and exercise for my health and to reach my goals, but at this moment, I am starting by just tracking my food and aiming for a daily walk. I am counting on getting caught up in the Spark motivation to move ahead.

I am married with 2 wonderful children; a son age 12 and a 8 year old daughter. I relocated to the Kansas City, MO area last summer. I love photography and now that I am back in my favorite city, I want to spend more time taking photos, for me.

From past experience I know that SparkPeople can work and is a wonderful support system. I am needing some of that these days!
