Hello! I am a teacher in suburban St. Louis--a reading specialist, more specifically. I'm heading into my 10th year of teaching, and I'm finally tackling the weight I've put on since I started my career. There's the stress of the job that is enough to pack on pounds, but then there's the resulting lack of energy that leads to making poor food choices and not exercising. However, thanks in part to SparkPeople, things ARE getting better!!!

Member Since: 1/3/2009

SparkPoints: 56,795

Fitness Minutes: 18,840

My Goals:
Drop the 60 pounds or so that I have gained since I started teaching (most of which came in the last couple of years).

My Program:
~ Tracking my food intake as diligently as possible. Even when I'm not behaving. ;)

~ Tracking my exercise, which includes walking in my neighborhood, DVDs, strength training, yoga, and stretching routines. I am currently using lots of Leslie Sansone videos for cardio, Jillian Michaels for strength and Katherine Coffee and Tamilee Webb for stretching routines.

~ Wearing a pedometer to track my steps. I really try to shoot for 10000 steps, but my daily SP goal is a more realistic 7500.

Personal Information:
I live in the St. Louis, MO, area with my husband Matt and our cute dogs Mollie and Sandy.

Other Information:
I'm maybe kinda sorta really addicted to Criminal Minds, especially Dr. Spencer Reid (Matthew Gray Gubler), in case you couldn't tell by my background.

I also love sports (Royals, Chiefs, Cardinals, Rams, Mizzou, Missouri State, Kentucky), politics, and reading books that help my personal growth without being too New Age-y.
