Introduction Text Back at it! I'm here for probably the same reason(s) most everyone else is---for a CHANGE! Being a new RN is tough. What's tougher is trying to change an unhealthy lifestyle when you've been using it as a crutch for reasons no one can see. I believe in support and that it really does change lives. That's why I'm here. I want to change. I don't want to be defined or held down by my struggles any longer.

Small goals: 1. Run a 5k -- 5.4.13! 2. Drink 32 oz of H2O a day 3. Do cardio 5 to 6 days a week. 4. Sleep 8 to 9 hours a night. 5. Prepare meals a week in advance. Large Goals: 1. Run a marathon. 2. Lose 140 pounds. 3. Be completely healthy (mind, body, soul)

EXERCISE Strength Train at least 3 days a week. Cardio (my favorite is hip hop dance!) 4-6 days a week. NUTRITION *IIFYM and counting cals *Eat clean *Low-glycemic (I have PCOS/metabolic syndrome) *MORE VEGGIES!

I am a newly licensed Registered Nurse (RN) who desperately needs to stay on track of getting healthy while starting this new, stressful career. Outside of nutrition/diet/weight loss... I love antiques, crafting and repurposing. My creativity makes me extremely happy! Just recently became VERY interested in hiking after traversing Mt Lemmon in Tucson. Last, but not least... I need to make friends. I think that has been my downfall in my weight loss/healthy lifestyle journey. I really don't have many friends who can relate to me or understand the struggles of being more than 100 pounds overweight. So that's another goal!

Things that make me happy: *aromatherapy *Halloween *rescuing animals *sewing, knitting *soccer *music (I love bluegrass, classical, Indie, Bollywood, and reggaeton to get me going) *Christmas *thrifty shopping *antique hunts *genealogy
