Introduction Text I came to SparkPeople to turn things around in my life. As I get closer to retirement, I've vowed that a rocking chair is not in my future! And it's working - after a year, I've shed the pounds, and have a much healthier outlook on life. Doesn't get much better than that! 2019 update: After much back-sliding, I've gained back a lot of the weight I had lost. Before it all comes back on, I'm back to tracking and am working on getting back to walking more regularly. I know that healthy living works, now I just have to make sure that I do! Retirement is wonderful, and I want to be around a long time to enjoy it.

I'm a retired ecologist, currently living in the beautiful high country of northern Arizona. I became a biologist because I have a deep appreciation and concern for all of the beautiful creatures with whom we share our planet, but especially birds. I enjoy getting outside, hiking, bird watching, and hand crafts. Luckily for me, I live in a great place to do all the above.
