Like most people, I've battled my weight for as long as I can remember. Carbs and sweets are my downfall, and I've had much too much of that for a while now, but overall I eat fairly healthfully. My biggest problem is moving. I became self-employed two years ago, and I think (1) the stress of that and (2) the desire to get it all done NOW, keeps me at my desk for too much of the day. I know I need to move more; that is my biggest challenge. 6/28/2014: So add to my list of challenges, on 12/31/13 I broke my ankle. Happy New Year, NOT! Surgery to repair 1/14/14, PT, yada yada. Have worked my butt off (literally) since getting back to the gym in April. I'm 13# lighter than at NY's and I'm feeling fitter and stronger. But I ain't done yet!!

To have the outside me better reflect the inner healthy me!

1. Dress for success every day! In this case, workout clothes. I commit to 1 hour of structured exercise 4 days a week. PUT IT ON THE CALENDAR! 2. PUT ON THE TIMER! Every 2 hrs, do a 10-min workout and eat. Try to get some protein in there.

Baby steps: 178 - 9/16/13 160 - 6/1/14 158 - 9/1/14 -- way to go! 3 months to lose 2 pounds! Okay, I had a 2-wk vacation in there but this has to improve! 156 - 154 - 152 - 150 - This round done, Do it Again!

6/13/14 It's been an interesting road since the broken ankle 12/31/13, surgery, PT, etc, but I am so blessed to be back to working out and feeling strong.
