And so we begin...

Hi, Hello, How are ya? My name is Maile and I'm one half of the Big Sky Besties. I thought I'd take a minute to introduce us to anyone who might be scrolling by. The Big Sky Besties are two...who would have guessed it...best friends who are as different as night and day but yet balance each other out like nobody else can. Where one is short, the other is tall. Where one is fair, the other is tan. Where one is quiet, the other is a bit more...well, out there...enough said. I think you get the picture. We have so many similar values and interests and that is what has kept our friendship strong throughout the years. One of the things we have both struggled with has been our weight. We grew up with such specific ideas of what our bodies should look like and with that have come to the conclusion that at this point we just want to feel good. Doesn't matter what size we are or whether we conform to society's standard of "thin". We want to be healthy and pass that onto our family and friends. Hopefully we can count on you as one of them!

So here we being our weight loss journey and how better to keep ourselves accountable but to share it with the world. We hope through this journey we pick up new friends along the way whether in person or virtually and also can give you tips and tricks that will be useful in your own lives. We hope you get to know us better through our posts here and also you can find us on our social medias. We'll be sharing not only our weight loss transformations but will also share our recipes, what helps us run our homes, crafting ideas and so much more. We figure that this site will be a catch all for all of our varied interests and hopefully be able to give you a glance into our thirty year friendship. So sit back, grab your favorite healthy snack and enjoy the chaos that is our lives. We hope you enjoy the Big Sky Country and feel a bit like you're a next door neighbor.

Always,

Maile
