Cindy's Journey to Healthy Living
My life has been a cycle of one yo-yo diet after another...if it advertised on TV or in a magazine, I tried it. I probably lost weight on it; and promptly put back on 2 to 3 times as much. I finally decided to step off the merry-go-round and learn that being healthy was all about eating delicious natural foods and moving my body in fun ways...some call it exercising. Now I'm working on getting my daughter and grandchildren to adopt healthy habits while they are young...why waste all those years ...

Member Since: 7/4/2009
SparkPoints: 5,024
Fitness Minutes: 1,108
My Goals:
Reach and maintain a healthy weight for my body in a sensible manner.
Participate in an exercise program that incorporates stretching, strength training, cardio, and core fitness.
Pass along healthy habits to my children and grandchildren. "Teach one to reach one"
My Program:
I joined Weight Watchers in February and have lost 55 lbs so far. I love the points system. I love to cook and create recipes. I've increased my exercise routine by jogging (though by SparkPeople standards it is still considered walking speed) at the Nature Trail by my house several times a week. Next on the agenda is getting my kayak out of the garage and onto the river!
Personal Information:
Originally from Boise, Idaho, I moved to Maryland in 1999 with the military. I have constantly struggled to keep my job because of my weight. I am close to retirement now finally getting this weight thing under control!
Other Information:
I love to garden and craft, play with my grandbabies, and spend time on the computer.
