My name is Louise. I live and work in Miami. I grew up in a family where, frankly, the food wasn't very good. During college I studied in France and discovered good food and wine. I quickly made up for lost time, and food became an important part of my life. Many friendships before and after my marriage were based on it. I thrived on work and stress and always tended to push myself beyond my limits.
In the mid 90s I did a career change and became a Buddhist. I'm recently changed to a low stress job where I will have time to focus more on spiritual things and I want to get my body back in balance. A month or so ago I was reading Daniel Reid and came across this site. Fasting is something I've done off and on for years and recently rediscovered that works for me. It took me a long time to get here, but I am psyched and ready for the journey.
