    About Me

    I am a 26 year old Social Worker. I'm married and have no children. My husband and I have been together for six years; for the most part he's pretty wonderful. :) I recently suffered a miscarriage at 12 weeks; it was my first pregnancy. I had a D&C and am now waiting to begin trying again.

    Interests

    Reading, Scrapbooking, Biking, Rollerblading, Speedwalking, and my little Cocker Spaniel puppy named Zeeke

      D&C Working / Worked
      most terrifying experience of my life

      this has been the best way of grieving for me

    • Close Diets & Weight Maintenance

      I have always struggled to maintain a healthy weight. Obesiety runs in my family on my mother's side and I've always done pretty well with staying somewhat thin. However, I recently suffered a miscarriage and now I am trying to lose a good 15 pounds at the same time I am trying to conceive again; which is not a good combination.

      Treatments

      Counting Calories Working / Worked
      It keeps me in tune with how much I actually eat... all the calories add up!
      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      I speed walk everyday for 30 minutes but I am about to increase to running in order to drop some pounds... I hate running.
      Weight Watchers Working / Worked
      I lost about 45 pounds on WW about five years ago and have now gained about 25 of it back.
