Spring 2012 Update- Coming soon!!
Fall 2011 Update- I lost 12lbs in the Summer 5% Challenge, just short of my 5% goal but I'm so not complaining! I lost 12 lbs in 8 weeks!! Fantastic! Since then, I've slacked a little and, of course, life has "gotten in the way" (how can that be!) so I'm ready to start the Fall 5% Challenge!! This time around I have 13lbs to lose in 8 weeks and after the last challenge, I know I can do it!!

July 2011 Update- I feel it is time for a little Spark revamping =)
I've been active here for 6 months and lost just over 11 pounds, and while I'm taking every pound lost as a victory I know I need to be doing better. Yes, I'm moving more & eating better but I have not pushed myself...yet! Starting July 16, 2011 I will begin the 5% Summer Challenge! The plan is to lose 14 pounds in 8 weeks, which is 1.75 pounds a week- pretty intimating but not impossible. I am going to PUSH myself & I am going to do this =D
And now the basics...
I am a proud curvy girl but I'm tired of feeling fat.
A bit about me- I'm 25 (which gives plenty of time to reach my goal), happily married with two rescued furbabies. While they are true loves, I really want (& need) to get my weight & health in check to one day carry a child of my own.
I work at the local University & love my desk job but it is exactly that- 40+ hours of sitting a week.
I tend to eat well enough at work (always get all my water!) but dinners with the hubby sabotage me every night & while I'm being honest here, we eat out several times a week. Of course, I have my (reasonable) excuses why but nonetheless, it is unacceptable for someone who needs to lose weight.
I long to learn how to cook.
& I have fallen in love with everything SparkPeople has to offer.

Weight loss goals:

My Program:
First & foremost- GET MOVING!
Watch what I'm eating. I love to eat so at this point, I'm not looking to eat less but eat healthier. Dinner is the hardest for me to stay on track.
*Update: Buying a food scale & going to start measuring EVERYTHING! No more eyeballing!!
