About Me

Hi, my name is Karen, welcome to my little corner of the web. The purpose of this webpage is to tell you a little bit about me and my family. I hope you enjoy your stay, feel free to sign my guestbook or send me an e-mail if you have any comments or suggestions.

I am 33 years old and have been married for 13 years to my wonderful husband Duane. We have 2 boys, Kevin (Age 11) and Matthew (Age 9). We also have a purebred full sized pomeranian named Teddy and a black cat named Velvet. For the last 6 years we have lived in a small town in the Kootenays. What is a Kootenay you ask? It is a beautiful area located in the mountains of the southern interior of British Columbia. Have a look at the scenic pictures page for pictures of the area. For more pictures, check out the photo album where you will find pictures of me and my family. All the photo pages use javascript, so if your browser is not able, you are out of luck until I make the non-javascript versions.

One of my biggest accomplishments has been losing over 100 lbs. If you are interested in hearing more about my story, have a look at my weight loss story page. Want to see the changes? Check out my before & after pictures page. I have also put together some weight loss links that were useful to me.

In May of 2001, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease called antiphospholipid syndrome or APS as the other name is a mouthful! If you are interested in learning more about the disease, please look at my APS information page or my APS links page.

Let me know you were here, sign my guestbook.
