looking good
Hello Sparkspeople! I am new to this website. Actually, I had started my own exercise routine on June 11th, and was browsing looking for a weight tracking slider to put on myspace page(www.myspace.com/blanco1106) and that is when I came across Sparks! I am glad I did! I love all the articles and exercises they show (with demos)... I also enjoy that they give you good ideas for eating healthy. Anyways about me, well I am in my early 30's, I have 4 boys. I haven't always watched ...
Hello Sparkspeople! I am new to this website. Actually, I had started my own exercise routine on June 11th, and was browsing looking for a weight tracking slider to put on myspace page(www.myspace.com/blanco1106) and that is when I came across Sparks! I am glad I did! I love all the articles and exercises they show (with demos)... I also enjoy that they give you good ideas for eating healthy. Anyways about me, well I am in my early 30's, I have 4 boys. I haven't always watched what I eat since I am tall (5'6) I look taller than that cuz I have long legs, I don't look too overweight (just mostly my mid-esection), but now I am feeling heavy and tired all the time. I started bike riding around the neighborhood (5 laps = 4.5 miles) and that is what is working for me. I just recently added strength training with dumbells and I am super sore! When I started I weighed myself at 184 lbs., and haven't weighed myself since then. I feel lighter and energized. I start my morning at 5:30 am and that keeps me up and bouncy all morning and basically all day

My Goals:
My goal is to lose 42 lbs this will get me to a normal BMI. Currently, my BMI is 29.7 and that makes me right on the border of being obese.
My Program:
Bike Riding has really boosted my weight loss and energy level. I bike ride around the neighborhood 5 laps = 4.5 miles 6 days a wk. I am focusing on eating healthy. No diet plan, just smaller proportions. Oatmeal in the morning. Adding dumbells to strength training exercises targeting specific areas.
Personal Information:
My name is Maribel. I live in South Texas right by the border of Mexico. I am in my early 30's and I have 4 boys (ages: 13, 10, 8, and 7). I recently remarried (8 months ago) and now have 6 step-children (whom do not live with us, unfortunately)
