Melissa: I'm a 40 year old wife & mom of two living in San Diego. Trying to find a balance between my favorite pastime (food) and health/exercise is a constant challenge but one I enjoy! Journey with me through my favorite topics: health, fitness and FOOD! I started this blog to help me lose those last few pounds (via Weight Watchers) and decided to post my weight everyday to be accountable to myself. Feel free to contact me at: melissa@melissalikestoeat.com
