My weight loss journey
It's time to be healthy and to have more energy, and to be kind to my knees. I'm 56 years old and I've been skinny most of my life--until I hit the 40's, then it all piled on. Spark People is so motivating to me! Now I'm working out daily, lifting weights, doing exercise DVDs, and logging my meals. I feel so much better living this way.

My Program:
Cardio and strength every day. I don't plan out my "rest" days, but there are always a few days each month where I'm either too busy or too tired, and so those become my rest days.

bike up to 13 miles at a stretch DONE--up to 22 miles as of July 1

Other Information:
My husband and I have two children and three grandchildren. I love to play piano (I play for our church), scrapbook, and read. Lately I've started enjoying less sedentary things like riding bikes and walking with friends. My favorite show is The Biggest Loser.
