Looking for improvement


I'm Christine. I believe fitness keeps your body and looks youthful. While taking classes and coping with testing stress, I gained a load of weight. Now it's time to get back to the healthy fit lifestyle and lose that load!

My Goals:
I want to exercise most days of the week, get the blood flowing, strengthen and slim down. Regaining and then keeping a healthy lifestyle is key for the rest of my life, and will keep me looking and feeling younger as I age.

My Program:
 I'm restarting a healthy lifestyle of good eating and exercise 4 + days a week.


Personal Information:
I've gone through a few life change challenges, including the drastic diet changes of needing to go dairy-free and gluten-free. I'm originally an Oregonian. However, I've lived in Utah, Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, and now Arkansas. Additionally I've spent years living abroad in Sweden, Japan, and Indonesia.

Other Information:
 I've read "The China Study"

    Wow you have had a long battle with it. Mine started like I say after I had my gallbladder removed and the doctor told me it would only last three months. I started up with a internal medicine doctor who sent me to a specialist that put me through some test and that what he found out it was. I have had it now for 9 yrs and like you I have to be knowledgeable about my triggers and what to avoid. I also have other problems that don't help it much as well. Good luck to you and hope you continue to get better with it.

    I see you talk about struggling with IBS and I also suffer from it as well. Some days it's like everything I eat will go straight through me and always looking for a bathroom or stay close to home. Mine started after having my gallbladder removed in between two pregnancies. Just wondering how long you have had your IBS?

    We haven't seen you around the NE AR Sparks Team lately so I thought I would pop in and say Hi. emoticon Francie (Francie-N-Bella) has become a co-leader, and we are making many changes to the team. We even have a new logo. We miss you and hope that you will stop in soon and see what we've been up to and help Spark us up!

    Hope that you're having a successful month and accomplishing your goals.

    Hello and welcome to SP and the Northeast AR Spark Team. This team has been my mainstay for motivation and fun. You will enjoy all your teams more if you jump in and get involved on the threads. It is through these efforts we get to know each other and then the support and encouragement become personal and more powerful.
