Lean and Mean in 2013

My name is Cyndi. I'm 40 years old, married for 19 years, with a 17 year old son. I work in the not-for-profit industry at a job I absolutely love.

I have gained about 120 lbs during the past 20 years that I want to take off again. I remember a different person back then. Someone who loved to go for long walks or bike rides, who wasn't afraid to go on a ride at the fair because the bar might not close over my belly, and I just felt so much better.

I have spent my adult life taking car of my son who I love with all my heart. He's a wonderful kid and I'm so proud of him. I have also spent a lot of time taking care of my hubby who has suffered from kidney problems, leg and knee issues, and recently had a quadruple by-pass. I have focused the past few years on my education and career, and have now achieved the position I have been working so hard for. Now I need to focus on taking care of myself, and becoming the strong, active, happy person I know I can be.

My Goals:
My first goal is to lose 10% of my body weight before I turn 41 on April 6. That's 28 pounds. I have a pair of jeans and a t-shirt that I bought too small to motivate me to lose the weight. I want to wear them out for dinner on my birthday.

I also want to get back into cross training to build my strength and endurance.

My Program:
Now that I'm not commuting 2 hours a day anymore, I have time to meal plan and prepare food at home. I will sit down once per week and plan my meals for the week, pack my lunches and make my breakfasts the night before so there are no excuses.

I am bringing my treadmill out of storage so that I can start walking while I watch TV in the evenings. I have also set up my Wii again to do my Zumba and Biggest Loser workouts. I plan to cycle through different workouts every day so that I keep my body guessing about what's coming next! Sparkpeople strength training plans are an awesome addition to the mix too.

I thought that this was a really beautiful quote and wanted to share it with my team mates emoticon

“The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. This is the day your life really begins.” – Bob Moawad
