"Ready For A New Path!"

About Me

I have been married to an incredible guy for 10 years now. We just retired from the Air Force 2 years ago and are loving it! We have 5 kids total between us, 2 quarter horses, 2 barn cats, 1 very spoiled, rotten and sweet sheltie dog named Katie and a 2 month old Golden Lab named Emily. We participate in a club called Great Plains Mounted Shooters which is a part of CMSA, Cowboy Mounted Shooters Association. We ride horses through an obstacle for speed while shooting balloons with 2, 45-caliber single-action revolvers. I started to lose weight for many reasons, (I was 217 lbs.) the first to pass an agility test (which I did), the second reason, because I figure, If I fall off of the horse, it's going to hurt less if I weigh less and third, I just couldn't stand to look at myself anymore. Gaaarose! My husband and I do a lot of hiking for nature and wildlife photos for our business, Redbud Photography and it sure helps with the hike when you aren't so overweight. Camera equipment is REALLY heavy. So, I'm taking a new path with my lifestyle of eating.

Why I Want To Get In Shape

Too many reasons to say.

My Inspirations

  • My husband, he's handsome and I want him to be proud of me beside him.
  • My kids and soon to be grandbaby. They need a good role model
  • Looking at myself in the mirror
  • Hiking trails. I like to breathe when I walk, not pant. :-)
