A day that will be burned in my mind forever.
It was the day that I lost my Mom.
February is always a hard month for me, and my body usually knows it before my mind even realizes.
The first few years I just chose to stay at home on this date and do nothing. If I had to work, I’d take a vacation day, but I would always spend it alone. Then I gradually started to do something on that day that would remind me of her, like go shopping and buy a purse. She was always on the hunt for the perfect purse. 🙂 Then when my Aunt and Uncle moved to Wyoming, I started coming out here. At first, it was just to get away, and now it’s my place to go and celebrate her life.
Not a day goes by that I don’t think about her and how blessed I was to have her as a mother 💗

When I started Tweaked Foodie, it was just an Instagram account to share my fitness journey and the way I’ve changed my thoughts about food. But so much more has changed about me over the years that I’ve tweaked not only my food habits, but my life. I’ve always struggled with my weight and I’ve tried every diet under the sun. I’ve lost the weight. I’ve gained the weight. I’ve never been slim and maybe I never will be. But through all of these years of ups and downs, I’ve found myself. I’ve tweaked myself. I’ve become the best me. And this is the me that I want to share, not just my love for food, but my love for travel, my love for helping people, my love for life. That love hasn’t always been there, it’s taken me years to get to this place. So this is me and my tweaked life….
