About Me

Hi, I'm Shari!  First let me first thank you for taking the time to get to know a little more about me. I'm a single thirty-something insurance agent/wanna-be runner/all-around badass who relocated from Texas to the great city of Chicago in January 2012.

 

After struggling with being overweight my entire life, I decided enough was enough and took my life back in August 2012 when I underwent Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy (VSG) surgery. This blog was created so I could connect with great people like yourself and to keep myself accountable and hopefully share some knowledge along the way. Like minds get it done, right?!

 
While I'll be charting my progress, there is so much more to me than just a number on a scale! I'm also an iPhone addict who loves gadgets and gizmos, I'm somewhat techy and will call myself a geek any day. I love live theater, plays, and musicals. I wish I was more crafty or at least excelled in making one thing. I don't believe you can ever have enough shoes or eye shadow. Target is my favorite store and I have an unhealthy obsession with nail polish. And most importantly, I have awesome hair.
