Hi!

I've been really working on me over the last year. This summer I turn 50. and I am good with it! I feel better than I have in years, and I aim to feel even better. I am trying to adopt a new healthy lifestyle. No diet, just learning how to eat healthy and so it's sustainable. (I've had enough of yo-yo diets in my life)

I'm really enjoying it and that is the key. I used to hate the idea of having to go to the gym and spend 30 minutes on the treadmill, or 30 minutes on the exercise bike, and none of that ever helped me drop the weight. And I never felt good when I left the gym either.

Now I am doing light weight training and I love it. I actually look forward to it, so there's no forcing myself to do it. And I am enjoying cooking at home! Who am I?? I used to HATE cooking and was really bad at it. Now, I look forward to it, and enjoy it. I turn on music (lately it's always Bon Jovi) and dance around and sing while cooking. I stick with simple meals, but high protein. I'm loving it.

It has taken up a lot of my time learning how to put myself first. But now I am trying to figure out how to add in time sitting at the computer and writing. I have so many stories floating around my brain, I just have to get them on paper.

If you haven't signed up for my newsletter, now is a good time. You won't miss new release news, and I try to always add a book that is on sale or free.

Well, speaking of cooking, I need to get dinner started. Make sure you follow me on facebook, instagram, threads, or bluesky so we can stay in touch!
