About Me


Hi,
Welcome to my blog. Thanks for stopping by. I just wanted to give a little bit of background about myself. I have lived in the same area all my life up until August of 2008 when my husband and I moved to the island of Sicily for a year (To read more about that go to http//:terminigoesgreen.blogspot.com)


I have always been interested in health and wellness, although sometimes I have a little bit of trouble with the follow through. My interest became a passion as our diet changed from eating a lot of quick, overly processed foods to eating fresh, whole foods cooked from scratch everyday. We saw many health benefits from eating a Mediterranean diet. We also found that the food tasted much better as well. After losing 10 kilos (about 22 lbs) over the course of the year, we returned to the United States in July of 2009. Shortly after that I was hired as a Circuit trainer for our local Curves. Changing our habits was difficult, but the benefits reaped from a proper diet and exercise were and still are well worth the effort.

My journey began in Italy, but it continues here until I reach my goal weight and can manage my time well enough to feed my family the healthiest food possible on a budget.
