Two steps forward, One step back...
HI! I turned 40 last summer, and I'm trying to still be hot. I was hot when I was 30, but I've been very un-hot in between. I did LA Weight loss for 1½ years, but I never hit my goal. I lost over 50 lbs. and came really close, but since then I met and married my dear husband, and I got away from some of the good habits I had made. He's all about eating healthy and exercising, but we both tend to be a little lazy if we allow ourselves to be unmotivated. We have a basement full of fitness ...
HI! I turned 40 last summer, and I'm trying to still be hot. I was hot when I was 30, but I've been very un-hot in between. I did LA Weight loss for 1½ years, but I never hit my goal. I lost over 50 lbs. and came really close, but since then I met and married my dear husband, and I got away from some of the good habits I had made. He's all about eating healthy and exercising, but we both tend to be a little lazy if we allow ourselves to be unmotivated. We have a basement full of fitness equipment, including the treadmill DH gave me a year ago. So, I have no excuse. I love the motivation I get from everyone here on SP!
This last summer, DH and I worked hard on getting our yard and garden in, and I got down almost 20 lbs. But when the seasons changed, so did my fitness - for the worse... I actually made it through the holidays without gaining a pound; but then I got a new job, and I've put on almost 10 pounds in only 6 weeks! We're doing a Biggest Loser challenge at my office, and I know I will lose at least the "required" 10 % in three months, but I plan to keep losing even more and reach my goal of 150. Maybe I'll be the office's Biggest Loser!

My Goals:
I'd really like to lose 20 lbs by May or June. I gotta get into all my Spring/Summer clothes!
My Program:
Nutrition
Currently DH and I are starting a Raw Foods diet. As with our Clean Eating, I imagine we'll eat about 80 or 90% raw.
Fitness
My goal is to do at least 30 min on the treadmill at least 3 days a week. I do a combination of running at 4 mph and walking at 3.5 mph, trying to mimic the intervals program I used to use at the gym.
Personal Information:
I live in Northern Utah and work as an admin asst at a software company. Almost all of DH's children are grown and have little ones, so I became a grandmother when I married him in September '07. The babies and kids in the pics are my GRANDCHILDREN, not my children. I never had any of my own; but it's okay, 'cause I never was baby hungry. I love the grandkids - if they fuss, I can give 'em back! LOL
Other Information:
My new favorite quotes:
"Character is better kept than restored."
- Armin Mueller-Stahl as Wilhelm Wexler in "The International"
"Sometimes you find your destiny on the road you took to avoid it."
- Clive Owen as Louis Salinger in "The International"

"Beautiful Woman Award! Once you've been given this award, you have to paste it on the wall of 8 women who deserve it. If you receive more than 3, you know you're really beautiful! If you break the chain, nothing will happen, but it's always good to know someone thinks you're beautiful inside and out"
