My family has been such a source of strength for me throughout this journey.  My husband, David, and children, Zach (17), Rachel (15) and William (7), have all given me such tremendous support.  They are wonderful!

This photo of me and David was taken during Spring Break, 2006 We were in Tucson visiting David's parents.  I am down almost 90 pounds here. 
 
My husband is my best friend and has loved me regardless of my size.  He's never known me thin, but I'm sure he'll love me when I get there  :o)
 
David is a 1st grade school teacher. He really enjoys teaching children in the younger grades, because they have such a wonderful curiousity and eagerness to learn.

Zach is an amazing athlete.  His passions are skateboarding, snowboarding, and tennis. He practices skateboarding constantly and can do some astounding tricks. He is getting in as much snowboarding as possible now that snow is in the mountains again. He plays bass guitar and has started a band with a few friends. They practice after school at our house.
