Wanted to say Hi from WA!

Hey, just wanted to introduce myself. I am 35, newly engaged mother of 2 amazing little men Ashton (9) and Memphis (6). I am a make up artist and hair stylist in WA state, love what I do and LOVE being a Mom!

So the short of it is , I have been on a journey with my health for a number of years. In and out of doctors offices and hospitals with 3 cancer scares in the last 12 months. Needless to say I've been re-evaluating things just a little. I really don't eat much meat in general and I have horrible reactions to dairy so I was already mostly plant based, then I stumbled upon the documentary "Forks over Knives" and my life changed. I have since been going through the process of changing over completely to a plant based lifestyle and I have never felt better! Not only is it helping my health it has opened my eyes to helping the world and I am learning far more than I ever expected about what goes into the food that I have been eating most of my life! I'm ready for the change!! I am looking forward to getting to know others here in this community and gathering knowledge to help me further on this journey!

Thanks for reading, DeShon

Neat! Are you enjoying this lack of rainy December?
Actually I am. My son keeps saying SNOW SNOW SNOW! But I am liking the crisp cold days. Much better without being soaked every time I walk out the door!
I know last year it was all snowy and white up here >.< I'm glad it's not slippery and wet!
Welcome! Can't say I've been to Renton, but I looove Seattle (I'm down near Astoria).
