Greetings! Welcome to Miss Oats Health Notes. I'm Miss Oats, I'm 31 years old and I, like so many other Americans, lived a very unhealthy lifestyle for a very long time.  I went from an unhealthy “normal weight”, to overweight, on to obese within 10 years. 

HOWEVER, all that has changed... click for complete bio

"What a Difference a Day Makes", Ella Fitzgerald says.
 
Spring 2006, I was also diagnosed with Lupus (possibly triggered by the accident at work...see bio)

This journal will be about my personal journey to good health, eating properly, fitness, the obesity epidemic in America, illness and wellness, in general. I am constantly on the look out for ways to make my life healthier. I have 25 pounds to my goal weight, and am determined to treat my lupus without the use of drugs for as long as I possibly can. I want to be a good example for my son, so that he never has to deal with weight issues and the stress associated with them. 
 
To Good Health!
Miss Oats
