The other day I was awakened by an extremely bright light. I fought it! I pulled the covers over my head and pretended it wasn’t on. I even told myself I could pretend I didn’t know it was on. Finally when the radio announcer’s voice started describing the weather, traffic and daily news I knew it was times to get up! I peeled back the covers and squinted-the light seemed so bright! I went to the next room, still squinting until I was in the darkness, only slightly influenced by the bright light in the other room.
I approached the light feeling like I could now bare it. I was proud that I was now comfortable with the extreme brightness of the light. I walked to the switch only to realize the dimmer was turned all the way down to the dimmest setting.
So the light was on- not very bright- but the light was on.
This is how I view my journey to health. Sometimes the light seems bright, or health information I receive seems difficult, but as I get used to it I realize it is just the beginning of the brightening of my life.
I will share in this blog the moments in my journey to health when “the light went on.” The light continues to get brighter and when it brightens I will share that light with you. Let’s share here our triumphs, struggles, set-backs and successes.

proud of you. i guess a lot of the family is making changes. Brandyn has been killing it too. Personally, I have been studying nutrition lately to know how certain foods work for me. It's so much easier to make healthy decisions when you know how your food and body work together. I don't think that any of us will recognize each other come Christmas. Keep it up.
