I’m a San Diego native, working outside the home mom of 2. I have always been interested in health and from teenage years, I have had my share of following fad diets. Most have helped me achieve some sort of result I was looking for, but they didn’t last. Part of the problem, I found was they were usually extreme, not sustainable. Now that I am well into my 30’s I am more concerned with real health and living the a balanced life. I am not perfect, but if I was trying to be that would not be being balanced. Don’t get me wrong, there was a time I was striving for perfection, but over the past X number year, I have learned that is an unattainable goal in this system.

I have learned there are always two sides and you will always find some “expert” saying the opposite of another “expert”. There is a lot of garbage that a person has to weed through. I am not about going to extremes and cutting out certain products or foods. I am about balance and what works for each individual. I am not all about one product or program, but have my faves from multiple sources.  Whether its having a splurge with food or having a lazy day.

I’m not a born writer, or a nutritionist, a chemist, scientist, or doctor. I love the human body and it fascinates me. When I was a kid I wanted to be a Doctor, but I learned I was not it cut for that. I am a busy mom, wife, and daughter.

I love cooking, eating, trying new things, sports and makeup. I am looking forward to sharing some tips and products that I have found to be amazing. My recipes are real and I have made them with the family. I always try to cook healthy, and when I splurge I try to use the best whole ingredients I can. When I say whole, I mean unrefined, unprocessed.
