Miquela

I'm a very lucky person, most things in life seem to go my way. I was born very early, tiny and very sick (they said I wouldn't make it), so I think God felt bad for me, since then I've made up a lot of ground! I have good genetics; no cholesterol or blood pressure problems, etc. and my fat is distributed over my body, not concentrated in one problem area! Besides being beat up from 35 years of the athletic life, I'm in good health. My only real health issue is mental! My eyes don't see me the same way others do, but at least my brain knows that my eyes don't work so well....

I'm very active, but I have a little bit of a food addiction. I don't eat because I'm hungry, I eat because it tastes good. Trying to cut back to 'eat to live' portions is tough. Although, now that I'm trying to keep my calories to 1400 or so, I am frequently hungry.

My avatar is a picture of my middle child, Lacey, and in the background, you can see a little bit of her older sister, Trouble. The baby, Romeo, isn't pictured. I love my dogs!
