For years, we resided ourselves to the lie that we would be extremely obese for the rest of our lives. We are excited to say that we have been given the tools to reclaim our lives! Now, it is time to pay it forward! We are here to help those who are ready!
It is possible!
Reclaiming our lives and becoming the people we want to be!

Launching our blog!
Sure, at times it feels like I have blogs all over the place! What with my grad school tech classes, private life, and now professional life. But the great thing about blogs is that people can take or leave what they want.
Rick and I are excited to be embarking on our journey as health coaches. We started on a program last year and the results were so amazing, we just had to share with others! (I also notice that along with the weight loss, I write with a lot more exclamation points. That's how excited I am!)
I am absolutely loving the little things that have been gifted back to me that I used to take for granted. Things like bending down to tie my shoes-- WITHOUT my knees creaking! I can run, jump rope, and fit behind the wheel of my car. My fencing gear fits again and I'm looking forward to doing some dueling with my husband (even if he IS left-handed).
Losing the weight has done incredible things for me. A couple of years ago, I had some blood work done to see where my glucose levels were. Diabetes was a very REAL risk for me, being Alaskan Native and my grandfather passing away from it. I was labeled as "Impaired Glucose Tolerance," meaning, I was well on my way to developing Type 2 Diabetes.
I am very pleased to say that a recent doctor's appointment and blood results announced that my glucose levels are back to normal and healthy. The doctor even said that my cholesterol was "exceptional."
There is so much more to tell you about our journey, and I will be filling you in. Right now, I just want to introduce our blog as, hopefully, a helpful resource. We've included helpful links for those interested, or even just curious, in what this program has to offer.
Have a glorious day, everybody. Please do not hesitate to ask us questions!
