Hello all.

I lost 100 pounds through WW and had my 2nd anniversary of maintenance on September 19 2012. Since then, I have struggled with some binging and some weight gain, made even worse by having a month long bad cold in November 2012. I am working hard to embrace a lifetime of wellness. I am using technology big time these days (fitbit, sparkpeople, and iPhone 5) to track my metrics.

Hello all.

I lost 100 pounds through WW and had my 2nd anniversary of maintenance on September 19 2012. Since then, I have struggled with some binging and some weight gain, made even worse by having a month long bad cold in November 2012. I am working hard to embrace a lifetime of wellness. I am using technology big time these days (fitbit, sparkpeople, and iPhone 5) to track my metrics.

Believe it or not, I still have some soft tissue issues from my foot surgery--it's been 6 months!--but I am doing my 5K on the treadmill, and weights, and hooping.

I'm about 8 months from retirement and am gleefully planning a retirement full of volunteer work, much more guitar, more recreation, and some part time work that reflects my passion, such as working in a music store.

Looking for continuing motivation and help with this lifetime journey!

Fitness Minutes: 59,099

My Goals:
To have a fit and healthy retirement!

My Program:
I am focusing on wellness of all kinds--fitness, nutrition, emotional, social, to take an initial weight loss and turn it into my lifestyle. I love gadgets and use a fitbit pedometer, and have all kinds of applications on my iPhone and iPad to help me along. I track my nutrition and fitness on SP (usually less than 1,400 calories), treadmill 6 times a week, lift light weights 3 times a week, hoop three days a week, and walk outside on the 7th day.

Personal Information:
My real name is Bonita, I am Canadian and live just north of Toronto. I trained in social work and am now working in quality assurance in a social service agency.

My passion is classical guitar and in the photo I am playing my Yamaha GC-31, a mid range performance guitar, solid wood, not a bit of laminate on him!

My favorite music is Renaissance lute music transposed for classical guitar. Think of the dancing music in "Shakespeare in Love" and Greensleeves to get an idea.
