I am pregnant with my first child so I thought I would document my experiences! Note: the girl in the cover is not me, I found it on Google :)

This is a true story of my personal journey seeking health, fitness and longevity. There were setbacks, struggles, disappointments, and some learning along the way. With setbacks often comes reassessment, opportunity and reward. We all need to learn that. The fact that it has taken me a lifetime may not be so unusual. I was recently asked, if I was 45 years old again, what would I do differently. My answer was, "not much", and the reason is that every age that we go through has it's own unique challenges that are specific to that age and circumstance. With time, our muscles and joints stiffen, our digestive systems deteriorate, and our hearing and sight worsens. So we need to keep changing our focus and pay attention to those needs as they arrise. There are no rules or guidance that fits all people for all ages. And there are no gurus. We all need to figure out our own path as we go along. This story is about my travels along my path, but as I did, watching others going before me, there are some clues that may just feel like the right thing to do.
