I am in my late 50's. I have lived in Japan, Germany, Italy and at least 5 different states in the US. I moved to Florida 23 years ago. I am recently divorced and have two grown children. I am a CNA/HHA and work for a Home Care Service. I was diagnosed with diabetes in October 2000 and have to eat a low-calorie, low-sodium, low-cholesterol and low-fat diet. I lost 50 pounds in 6 months using the American Diabetic Association diet and bought several of their cookbooks to help me on my way. I kept it off for 4 years and then it started creaping back. So you could say I'm back to square one. I love to cook and my cookbook collection takes up one whole bookcase. I enjoy reading and making gifts and things from plastic canvas.
