Since being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes<\/a> four years ago I have lost 100 pounds. I have become a diabetes advocate, a motivational speaker and now a weight loss coach. So many blessings have happened since that dreadful day hearing the words “you have type 2 diabetes.” All though it was very depressing to hear those words it was not long that the depression I was feeling turned in to desire to change my life.<\/p>\n

During that journey I had no idea what was in store for me. I have been so blessed to be able to spread my message far and wide in hopes to help others who have type 2 diabetes and those who struggle with weight issues change their lifestyle. I run a web site called “Get Up and Get Moving”. I have tips for shedding those unwanted pounds, I also have lots of information about type 2 diabetes.<\/p>\n

This month, July 31 to be exact, you can pick up a copy of First for Women magazine where you can read my story between the pages. I am so blessed that the editors from First for Women really were excited to get my story national attention and wanted to feature me in their magazine. I really feel it’s my calling to help others in their journey to better health.<\/p>\n

I recently was blessed with spending the day with some wonderful producers from New York. They filmed my entire day. I will be in an upcoming type 2 diabetes documentary. I really feel it’s my calling to help others in their journey to better health. It seems like daily more doors keep opening for me to do just that.<\/p>\n

I also am very excited to compete for Mrs. Idaho International August 14. The Mrs. Idaho International pageant is all about platform. I love my state and I love my platform of type 2 diabetes. The passion I have is though living with this disease. Losing weight and now having the disease under control though diet and exercise only.\u00a0 I have been truly blessed in my journey and am always wanting to find more ways to keep my message moving forward.<\/p>\n
