I have struggled with my weight for most of my life, starting in elementary school. My mom was obese and my dad is overweight, and I didn't learn the best eating habits from them. When I got into high school we were eating out all the time. Working at Dairy Queen didn't help me much either. I weight 140 when I graduated high school, and I find it funny that I thought I was fat then because now I would love to weigh 140 (and I'm going to get there!).

My first year of college I was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder and I was put on meds that made me gain a ton of weight, due to the combination of not exercising and laying around and eating out all the time. In 2006 I weighed in at 190 lbs. I decided to start working out and eating better, and I lost 20 lbs but I plateaued there. I picked up biking and during that summer I biked everywhere.

In 2007 my mom died, and I gained the 20 lbs back, and depression acted up again. By the time I graduated college in 2008 I was at 190, probably 195. I couldn't find anything nice to wear for graduation that fit well. I decided enough was enough. Slowly I changed my eating habits and cut pop out.

I have rediscovered ballet and love to dance. I workout at the gym at my apartment complex and it's done me well. For 2010 my goal is to run in a 5K.

I'm in grad school at Ohio State. I have two more classes and my thesis and I will finally have my masters degree. I see you're trying to run a 5k this year. Have you been training much? I'm not a fast runner but run pretty regularly and trying to train to run a 5k in under 30 minutes - it's been a goal for a while now so hopefully I can make it happen this year!

Congrats on the hard work and weight loss. I have gone up and down with my weight ever since I can remember and am really wanting to jump back on the wagon and get this thing done! Wondering if you're still in need of a spark buddy.
