Changing my diet and exercise plan
I have been dieting off and on for years but kept my weight down until I got pregnant after age 40. I did a lot of research on exercises I could do with fibromyalgia and age - a lot of trial and error to find ones I could do. Before I found SparkPeople, I was using several sites daily to get the information I needed. I like healthier foods especially fruit and veggies. I have a hard time keeping enough calories in my day.

I have been dieting off and on for years but kept my weight down until I got pregnant after age 40. I did a lot of research on exercises I could do with fibromyalgia and age - a lot of trial and error to find ones I could do. Before I found SparkPeople, I was using several sites daily to get the information I needed. I like healthier foods especially fruit and veggies. I have a hard time keeping enough calories in my day. I like to be active outside especially with milder weather and summer. I am a strong Christian and active in the Catholic church. I've become stronger in my faith during the past few years when I was under employed. It didn't really do me any good to "follow the leader" during the "the plentiful years" so I am back to following God. It makes me feel better and I have found peace in my life, better friends and community support. I'm just Catholic or Christian and not the kind that will preach on the street corner. I will discuss religions with someone to learn about their culture. I will pass things out when people request them. I do attend church. I will pray for someone who requests it. I won't force my views on you but I won't give up or change my religion either.

My Goals:
To maintain my health as I age. To be comfortable with myself and my lifestyle. To eat the foods I like - which are healthy! I hope someday to return to live in the western states.
My Program:
Keeping lots of veggies and fruit in my diet. Having a lot of variety. Acknowledging that my preferences are the better for you foods and it's ok to be a "picky" eater. I've pretty much eliminated junk food.
Personal Information:
Minnesota native with brief periods in Wisconsin and Colorado. Was raised with a very strict Catholic background which is still a strong part of my personality today.
Other Information:
I like the crime shows, comedies like Two and a Half Men. Golden Pond with Katherine Hepburn was one of my favorite movies. I saw on Oprah where Katherine Hepburn admitted to being Amelia Erheart and I had always been an admirer of both. Katherine Hepburn is a much better role model than any current actress I know of. She always maintained her integrity - she did stick to one man for most of her life and she refused to be thought of as "fluff". In her younger day, she was a very beautiful woman although publicity calls her "plain."
