Hi, I'm Vanessa and I'm a mom of three. I coach people in going green, weight loss, and fitness. Since surviving cervical cancer in 2006, I devote my time to helping other families eliminate chemicals and cancerous preservatives from their homes. Think Wellness!
Since being diagnosed with a bone disease four years ago and being told I would be in a wheelchair within two years, I have done all I can to learn about wellness and tailor my lifestyle to meet my nutritional needs in a way that supports my immune system and my spine.
In May I ran across a study out of the UK that showed significant gains in folks with my problems who adhered to a vegan diet. There was also some promise in the area of avoiding gluten. In the end I've combined all the studies and am choosing to live vegan, gluten, sugar and caffeine free as well as as close to chemical free as possible.
It hasn't been easy but I am doing much better and the severity of my symptoms is reduced.
A nice side effect of this wellness lifestyle has been a loss of 37.5 pounds. The weight loss really reminded me of how I used to feel before this all began and now taking care of myself has become a priority.
Thanks for starting this group. I'm excited to be included.

Hello all! I'm Daphne. I am kinda new to all this peer networking and bloggin stuff. Maybe one day I will get my own blog site... but for now, I just do them on whatever pages I am a member of... ie here, myspace, geeks etc. I am definitely into eating healthy and once upon a time, when I was in the military, I was VERY into exercise. I hope to gain that momentum back!
