Hello Everyone!
Some of you may already know me! I've been around for a while, and then not around for a while. About me, I am 34 now, and still hovering around the same 220 pounds. 5'4" I go up and down, but that seems to be where my body wants to be, but I don't!
I've made some resolutions this year to:
1. Stop drinking diet soda (Last diet soda on 2/15/10)
2. Drink the proper amount of water (100oz for me right now) Divide you body weight by 2 and that's the ounces I hear.
3. Get off my lazy behind and work out at least 3-4 days a week
4. Stop eating out and prepare more food at home
5. Limit my couch potato time, or incorporate weights while I sit on my rump and watch the tube.
6. Really, really, get into a bikini by the end of summer.
7. Build strength and endurance
8. Lose weight and keep it off!
9. Get a boyfriend!!
10. Throw my spanks in the trash!!
11. Finish my annual half marathon in under 3:30 by next October. This will be my 4th one in a row!
12. Train and finish my first triathlon.
13. Be able to run 5 miles without stopping.
14. Switch to Organic foods at least 75% of the time.
I've tried losing weight so many times over the last 30 years of my life, and I seem to always end up back in the same place.
This year I want to focus more on fitness, as well as diet. I know they are both important, but if you can only do one some days, exercise in my opinion is better and in the long run if I can make it habit, the pounds will come off and stay off.
My goal is to do a mini triathlon on September 26, 2010! Whoo hoo!! Here's the event!
Distance to train for:
For a mini-triathlon:
Mermaid Triathlon Specific:
.25mile (400m) Swim
11mile Bike
2.5mile Run
I plan on using this as my fitness diary, as well as my weight loss diary.
I want 2010 to be my year!!
I am tired of climbing the hill and sliding back down.
Fitness Log (Swim, Bike, Run)
(I'll record here only the stats where I have built more strength than the last entry, and can go a longer and faster distance, so I can track my endurance building)

02/05/10 60min = 3.5 miles

I used to come on myself, I did the same, coming and going but until yesterday I hadn't been on for almost a year! So this year I want to do it once and for all and I have close to the same goals as you. I want to improve my fitness so I can do more activities with people outside the house (indoor rock climbing, hiking, going to the beach and swimming, none of which I do because I'm overweight, it's hard and I can't do it well and don't have the self esteem to do it!). I also want to get back into running, I worked up to a 5k last year and I want to do it again and maybe try for a 10k for now.
, there are not many old faces around anymore.
! I needed you back in my "Virtual Life~!" hahah!!!!
