I have RSD (reflex sympathetic dystrophy - a nerve disorder) in my left ankle & lower leg. I picked up 35ish pounds over the last few years & if I walk around too much my ankle swells up & is very painful. My Dr told me if I wanted to reduce the pain that loosing 30 pounds was what I had to do & that if I didn't loose the weight it would only get worse...Plus I just wanted to feel better & have more energy so after some research I decided that a very low carb diet was my best option.

I take care of my 89 year old mom which is rewarding & flustrating at the same time!

Last October my husband of 24 years told me he wasn't happy & moved out, we are still not legally separated or anything, & I see a lot of him. It's weird & I stay depressed about it & cry often but it is what it is so I take it one day at a time & pray a lot.

I have a dog named Zack (havernese/maltese mix) who is adorable & loves me no matter what...unless I try to take his "toy of the day" out of his mouth lol

Now you all are pretty in the know about my life! !
