Lose weight and feel great in the process! Trying to make new lifestyle changes by incorporating healthy eating and exercising more. I want to accomplish a sprint triathalon in my lifetime and see where that leads me. I am far from being an athlete. I'm scared, nervous and excited. I don't know what to expect and I need a little help and support getting there. Any others out there with the same goal?

I am almost 30 years old, married, with 1 baby and have a wonderful puppy. I have struggled with my weight my whole life. I am 50 pounds heavier than I'd like to be. I really enjoy running and started racing in the last five years. I have done a couple of 5Ks, a few 10ks, a, 8k trail race, a 10 mile race, three half marathons, and a full marathon. I have a lot of self motivation when it comes to exercise but not when it comes to food. I really have to put in a lot of effort to watch how much I eat, but when I do I really see results....if only I could just keep it up til I am at the weight I want.
Went through a really rough spot in 2012. I had lost all of my "mojo" and could not stay motivated in any area of my life. I was under extreme stress at work, hormones were all over the place, I wasn't sleeping, I was becoming a serious binge / emotional over-eater and I was a complete overall mess. I was diagnosed with depression near the end of the year, but the meds they gave me did not help and even made things worse but I was determined to find a way out of the hole. I was introduced to my TLS coach Kim, and with the help of some vitamins and natural supplements I stopped the prescription meds. Within a few weeks I was starting to see the fog clear and I now feel like a new woman... or rather the one I remember being years ago! Once again I'm ready to kick ass and be that crazy person that runs in the cold and rain laughing as I see cars go by, or that does workouts someone half my age can't handle :-)
I'm a 43- year- old married mom of three children. I am active and love the outdoors. Recently, I been dealing with a stressful time and am hoping to once again gain mindfulness with respect to what I put in my body. I have been rather unkind to myself, and have been startled by my newly acquired habit of emotional eating. I need to work on my mindset
I'm training for my first Sprint Triathlon next month June 2013. I am "addicted" to the training components: swimm, bike, run. I am a clinician working in a clinic.
