I live in the Pacific Northwest in Gig Harbor, WA. I am 68 and work as a full time artist. I work about 40 hours a week and up to 60 hours if I am participating in an art show or festival. If you would like to check out my work, it is on my website. www.KateLarssonStudio.com. This is my second career. Previously, I worked for a major corporation as a sales representative for 28 years. I am a vegetarian. I have a wonderful son and daughter-in-law and two great grandchildren. My "babies" are 2 Havanese dogs, Bella and Beau. I lived in Europe for 9 years and so I have a love of traveling. I joined this website to get support on my journey to once again lose weight. I hope to support you, as well on your journey.
