Here is a bit more info about me:
I am 37 years old and I am finally on the path to getting healthy.
For many, many years I desperately wanted to lose weight, but never for the right reasons. I used to think that weight loss would somehow magically transform me and I'd become thin, elegant, rich and super popular.
Now I'm older and wiser and I have finally embraced the idea that weight loss is all about getting healthy. There is an alarmingly high rate of Type 2 Diabetes in my family and now is my chance to avoid it.
I love life and I am learning to love myself wholeheartedly and give myself the health that I deserve.
There is strength in numbers so feel free to stop by, say hello and add me as a friend!

My Program:
I am roughly following the Sparkpeople nutrition plan, although I've had to add more calories. 1500 a day was just not enough to keep me going.
I don't have a hard and fast deadline to lose weight so I'm working towards a series of mini-goals - 5 pounds at a time.
My current workout plan is Spark strength training three days a week and cardio four days a week.
I must admit I only get in about half of my scheduled exercise, so I have joined the Spark Your Body Bootcamp to kick start my fitness plan for 2010.
Personal Information:
I live in Canada with my wonderfully supportive husband. He is just as crazy as I am so we're great together!
I love all kinds of art and creative activities: collage, drawing, painting, knitting, weaving, needle-felting.
In the summer you can find me in the garden. During the rest of the year I like to hang out in the bathtub with a good book!
My fitness activities include yoga, walking, biking, skating, snowshoeing, stability ball exercises, mat pilates, stair stepper, and low impact aerobics on my rebounder. I get bored easily so I'm all about variety!
