Getting healthy, one day at a time


I'm a 30-something single professional trying for the umpteenth time to loose my excess weight. I'll try anything once, and now I'm trying SparkPeople!

Member Since: 10/29/2011

Fitness Minutes: 24,440

My Goals:
I'm looking to lose more than 100 pounds, look and feel better, and gain confidence.

My Program:
 I belong to my local Y and try to get there at least four times a week. When I work out at home, I love sweating to "Just Dance" on my Wii! As for my diet, I'm trying to stick to fruits and veggies, low-fat dairy, whole grains and lean protein -- but no beating myself up over a slice of pizza or scoop of ice cream!


Personal Information:
I'm a 30-something PR professional living and working in upstate New York, within view of the Adirondacks.

Other Information:
 I'm big into distractions when I work out. In fact, I think I'm becoming known at my Y as the girl who reads on the treadmill! I like to read easy, action-packed books while I work out -- some of the best have been "The Hunger Games" series, and now I'm re-reading "Harry Potter" -- so if you have a recommendation, I'd love to see it in the comments!

    Looking for a Fun Challenge this Summer? Want to get connected with a Team to support you through your Journey to a Healthier Lifestyle. If yes, then consider joining the BL Challenge that starts early June. Each week 11 teams of 24 Active, do fun nutritional and fitness challenges. The challenges promote a healthy lifestyle and If for some reason you cannot do a challenge then they are modified to meet your needs. Often we do the challenge in a game form, we have BINGO and TIC TAC TOE or seasonally themed. For Spring we had Gardening Time, Help Fill Peter Rabbit’s Basket and Bingo. If you decide this might be for you you can leave your name on the waitlist for the Summer challenge. To get to the Challenge go to my page and click on the “BLUE BIGGEST LOSER” Icon, or copy and paste the link below, or let me know and I can send you an invite. Join the Team then sign up on the waitlist. It’s the thread right below the Frosted Fitness Fun Chit Chat.

    Wanted to stop by and wish you a very Happy New Year! I'm finally back (it's been soooo long!) and just wanted to let you know that I've missed you and that I look forward to reconnecting. Hope you are doing well and that 2014 will be your best year yet!

    I just wanted to say hi and tell you that even though I've been away from SP for the past several months (bogged down with work and stress) I am looking forward to ending the mighty-year-of-challenges that has plagued me this past year and start fresh soon... I may be still a bit scarce around here for the next little while but I did want to let you know that I've been thinking of you and hope you are doing well in life, in happiness, and in your journey.
