Background
When I Started: Nov 2003
HOW I STARTED:
I started with lifting weights and doing aerobics about 4 days a week. I started in weight watchers with some of the girls at work, once I lost the majority of the weight I decided I need to work toward a leaner body.
WHY I LOVE IT:
I can't say I Love working out but it is a necessary part of my life to stay in shape and be healthy and I make it a priority.

...stress sucks...
Posted in Training : Dec 28, 2010 6:08pmI've got to say that getting divorced and having to manage a huge project at work all at the same time is not a whole lot of fun...I'm now up 10 pounds again... I need some major motivation to get my butt back in gear. :(
First 5K
Posted in Training : Dec 28, 2010 6:08pmI ran my first 5K today. Didn't do awesome but my goal was to finish and not be in last place. I finished in 30 minutes and 23 seconds, 4th from last. At least I wasn't last. hehe
Food Log 03-25-07
Posted in Training : Dec 28, 2010 6:08pmFood Log 3-25-07 Attached is a link to my food log for this week. I need some help in adding some good fats but still staying within my calories and adjusting my schedule to eat right after my workout in the morning. I workout from about 5:45 to 7 or 7:30. Keep in mind I have to eat at the gym, so I can't make oatmeal or something.
