But this is all 4 ME!!!
Most things are all about my dogs - but this is all about me. I have been dragging my feet too long, and am bound and determined to get this weight OFF once and for all!!!
While I joined in October of 2007, I really didn't begin until January of 2008. As of January 1, 2009, I have edited and updated my goals and ticker to begin anew, and continue this great journey!
Here's hoping I can use this space to get and give inspiration!

"The more I run, the more I want to run, and the more I live a life conditioned and influenced and fashioned by my running. And the more I run, the more certain I am that I am heading for my real goal: to become the person I am." --George Sheehan, M.D.
****************************************
My thoughts:
Running is what I do for my body.
Dancing is what I do for my Soul.
To dance -
To let the music into your body,
so that it can mix with your soul
and return to the world whole.
In strength there is grace;
And in grace, strength.
I run because I can
I run because others can't
I run because it brings me closer to God
I run because it brings me closer to Myself
I RUN

My Program:
After over 2 years here, I have my eating mostly on autopilot... I know what portion sizes are, I know what the consequences of eating junk are, and I eat accordingly. Besides, my body mostly rejects junk these days, so no more temptation! ;)
I run three days a week, dance occassionally, bike, hike and backpack... in other words "Keep it moving!!!" Doesn't much matter what it is! ;)
Personal Information:
48 years old
5'7"
I am a work in progress!
Other Information:
"Give yourself permission to be imperfect, but at the same time, give yourself permission to be WONDERFUL."
