One day at a time...

I've struggled with my weight my entire life. I remember going on a diet for the first time when I was in the second grade. Over the past few years, I have begun to make slow lifestyle changes. I've become more active and participate in outdoors activities. The only problem is that now my body doesn't match who I am. People don't look at me and think "I bet she loves hiking." It's more like "I bet she loves donuts." And that's so not who I am!
So, no more excuses. I firmly believe ...

My Goals:
*Run a 10k June 3, 2012

*Half Marathon October 2013


My Program:
*Moderate eating (I might write this down some day, but not right now)

*Exercise more days than not

*Show compassion for myself in all circumstance

Personal Information:
My name is Tori and after living all over the country, I returned to my New England home almost 2 years ago!

I love to be active but have struggled with weight and fitness my whole life. This whole journey is both motivated and impeded by my PCOS and degenerative disc disease.

Other Information:
I'm 5'9" and suspect I have a large frame (my hands and feet are HUGE!) but have never been thin enough to know for sure.

My favorite hobbies are cooking, reading, and knitting...but since that combination has led to significant weight gain over the years, I've taken up running.

Thanks for sharing Gabby's website! I am going to check it out!

I am always looking for easy, no thinking required workouts... where it is all laid out for me, and all I have to do is get sweaty!!

Have a fabulous day!
