Introduction Text Update: January 2014 Life is a journey, I have always said this. My journey this year includes a few simple goals. I say simple, but I don't really mean it. Play in Vegas this year (I couldn't play last year). Get back to my pre injury weight (almost there) and maintain it. And last but certainly not least, figure out my life. Oh, that's all, lol. Join me, follow me, let me follow you. Please be a part of my journey :) Today (July 2012) I am very close to my goal weight and maintaining, yay me! Whatever curve ball life throws at you, SparkPeople is a great place to be! I am having ACL (knee) surgery in a week and with the help of my Spriends, I will hit this one out of the ball park! Came to Spark in 2011, just to lose a few pounds and be proactive about my health. I learned to eat healthier, try new activities and lean on new friends for support.

Currently I have a soccer tournament in Vegas I am trying to get ready for. I want to lose a few holiday pounds to get my speed back :) I rocked this tournament....next... Run first 5k in May 2012: DONE! Have surgery and recover from torn ACL (June/July 2012)...hoping to get back on the field in Spring 2013!

Running (going slow here, but progressing) Strength training: 3-4 times per week Tracking all food and being mindful of portions

I am a confident strong woman. I am a wife, a mother, a college professor, a soccer player. I have good days and bad, the trick is to keep moving even when the bad derails us.

I am here to stay on track, to prevent my emotional eating from adding pounds and grief to my life. I will always respond to spark mail :)
