I never imagined that I would become someone who struggled with her weight. When I was a teenager, I could eat anything and everything that I wanted and never gain a pound.

How to Make the Most of Everyday Moments
In this week's Free Lance-Star column I share how watching old home videos over the holidays led me to choose my "one word" for 2014.

In this week's Free Lance-Star column, I shared my experience on "the mountain top" and how I now find myself in a deep, dark valley. The more I thought about this, the more I realized that when you are on the peak of a mountain, the only way to move forward is to go down. Yes, we can stay there, but if we did, there would be no movement or...
