I hope that this page will help you to get to know me better. In the future I hope to get to know you too.
I live on 12 acres with a huge vegetable garden, lots of berries and fruit trees, and the mountains right outside my back door.
We have cows, sheep, chickens, dogs and cats which make the spring time truly come alive when all the babies start to arrive. We raise several calves a year on the extra milk from our milk cow. When the lambs start to arrive, life on the farm takes on a whole different level of busy. We joke about being an “animal birthing specialist”. :) This last spring, 52 lambs born in a few weeks time, resulted in long days, and nights of very little sleep. But oh they are sooo cute.
I like hiking, playing in near by lakes, rafting down creeks and rivers and just being out-of-doors. The winter is when we have the most time to play. I down-hill ski some, but my family’s favorite activity is snowmobiling.
We have an Animal Feed business and my husband does concrete and is a jack of all trades. I am the office manager, accountant/bookkeeper and sometimes sales person.
I also home-school our 16 year old son. I teach a children’s class at church and am involved in a women’s Bible study and prayer group.
My mother died from MS several years ago and watching her health decline got me to thinking more about what is involved in having good health. For years I studied the body, nutrition, and what creates a healthy lifestyle. Caring for our animals has taught us many valuable things which we applied to our own health journey.
MY JOURNEY TO TOTAL HEALTH
Although I considered myself healthy, as I look back I realize that my health was starting to go down hill even in my 20’s. I managed to stay slim and had the energy to do what I wanted. But little things were there, skin problems that I could not get rid of, digestive problems, PMS, frequent migraines (I took aspirin daily). But my anorexic habits, since my early teens, of not eating except a small amount once a day and drinking very little water were setting the stage for what was to come. Being thin was the most important thing to me.
All this changed when I became pregnant. When I became pregnant I tried to eat healthier. My pregnancy was difficult, a lot of bed rest and my weight ballooned.
After my son was born I could not lose the weight. I was so tired and my muscles ached. I had to lie down and would sleep 10 hours at night and still be tired when I woke up. I struggled to keep the family and our businesses going. The next day I would be more behind and I just couldn’t catch up. I also found myself battling with depression for a while.
I went to several Doctors but they could not agree on why I was feeling this way, so I quit going.
I started looking for natural ways to improve my health. I wanted to be thin again, but I also wanted to feel good.
I tried different special diets, top-of the-line vitamins, minerals and supplements. My cupboards were full of stuff. I felt so frustrated…how was I going to get rid of those unwanted inches and pounds? Even exercise made me feel sick and tired. The weight just kept creeping on. I didn’t know what else to do.
So then I tried this product and within a few weeks I noticed I was waking and wanting to get up for a change and I didn’t need to lie down so often during the middle of the day. I could do more in a day then I used to do in a week. And I was getting smaller. It has been over 5 years now and I feel better than I did 15 years ago. People tell me I look better too. The best part is…now I can enjoy doing things with my family and not pay for it the next day.
I am grateful to finally be wearing clothes I had not been able to wear in years and to have energy and not hurt all the time any more…I feel like I have my life back. I love helping and teaching others, and I get to do both in this business.
At first I questioned my sanity in doing one more thing, but I decided I had to because I didn’t want anyone else to suffer the way I did. I thank God every day for bringing me through the difficult time.I want to help anyone who struggles like I did.
