Beaverton, OR I'm a 47 yr. young woman in a blissfully happy, long-term relationship with my best friend and soul mate, Jeff. Between us we have 9 young adult kids and one blue parakeet.

We love great food and good wine, so I'm a 47 yr. young woman in a blissfully happy, long-term relationship with my best friend and soul mate, Jeff. Between us we have 9 young adult kids and one blue parakeet. We are both self employed and work from home over the internet and phone. He is a software engineer and I am a spiritual coach, independent BeachBody fitness coach, and website designer. We love great food and good wine, so that, combined with our comfortable work-at-home lifestyle really contributed to our getting progressively more and more out of shape.
But with the help of Team Beach Body I have dropped 24 pounds and 18 inches from my frame in the past 6 months and I'm VERY EXCITED about the progress I'm making! I LOVE helping others, so if you need some support or a workout-buddy to help you achieve your own health and fitness goals I'm here for you!
My Progress My Fitness Goal: Lose Weight
Transformation Story

UPDATE: NOv. 13, 2009 - WOO HOO! I'm back down to my lowest recorded weight (again) today and at 52% of the way toward reaching my overall fitness goal! That means I'm MORE than half way there! Yippie!
Keep your eyes on my page because I will be posting updated photos the week of November 20th - 24th since I'm pushing to reach my all-time lowest weight (within the last 25 years anyhow!)by that date! The lowest weight I remember being was 162 in about 2002. So, I'm shooting to be at 162 by the 24th of this month. When I reach 160 I think I'm going to throw myself a little celebration party!!!
Stay Tuned!
Sept. 20, 2009 - I have lost 25 pounds since my all time high of 193 pounds last January. Even though I've lost that weight, I am just now starting on my Beachbody journey of getting fit and toned. I have 23 more pounds to lose to reach my goal weight of 145 pounds and a lot of work to get my muscle tone and endurance levels to the point where I want them! Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009 marks the date my Team Beachbody coaching package with my first fitness program dvd, Hip Hop Abs, will arrive! I am SO pumped up to get started on that program and to see the transformation awaiting my body!
I joined this site in December of 2008 weighting 189 lbs. Between that time and the end of January 2009 I gained another 4 pounds for an all time high of 193 lbs. I never even weighed that much when I was fully 9 months pregnant with any of my 3 children! So, that really impacted me in a BIG way.
Since March 2009 I have been steadily watching my diet and working out and I feel GREAT about the progress I'm making! I have been following a primarily Raw Foods Lifestyle which means I try to consume about 80% of my diet in raw, whole foods. I allow the 20% for cooked foods and keeping myself from feeling deprived. It has been working really well for me.
When my friend and Team Beach Body coach, Lori Burns, suggested I'd be a great Team Beach Body coach it seemed like a natural choice for me!
I'm excited about reaching my own weight-loss and fitness goals and if I can help others along the way that makes me really happy!
