After:
My first marathon!

| My Goal: |
Right now... somewhere... someone is doing what it takes to get what they want... and what YOU want.
Are YOU willing to do what it takes to get what YOU want?!?!
GOAL: reach and maintain my ideal weight
Starting weight: 142.4
Not sure what my ideal weight really is. I've gained a lot of muscle in the past year which is great, but still have a lot of fat.
I think my ideal weight is somewhere around 120 to 130.

| About me: |
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 :-)

| Diets I like: |
My new motto:
I like everything that I eat, but I don't eat everything I like
(or used to like!)
This pretty much involves cutting out the processed crap and eating more "real" food.
|
|
| Workout of choice: |
Running. Love to run. Love to race. Love to train.
But - actually anything that gets my heart pumping and makes me feel like I've accomplished something is good.
|
|
| My plan: |
Currently following the TLS Weightloss Solution.
I'm learning to eat like a normal thin person again and loving it!
|
|
| I need the most help with: |
Staying the course when surrounded by friends and family that think I am nuts with some of the things I eat (or no longer eat!)
Not allowing peer pressure to give me an excuse to eat crap.
