Every day is a step on my way to a whole new me.
I have been around since 2007, lost more than 50 lbs in less than two years, then regained most of it when I quit smoking in December 2009.
I am trying to re-define what is healthy for me now – I am not back to my lowest weight yet, but my body composition has improved drastically: My muscle to fat ratio is considered healthy, and my overall fitness is good. I am not quite ready to go into weight maintenance yet, I still want to lose 10 to 15 lbs, but I am quite happy with the improvements.

Member Since:
7/16/2007
Fitness Minutes:
216,219
My Goals:
I started at 201 and intend to end up at 146 pounds, bringing my BMI back into the normal range. I used to be obese, with a BMI of 33.5.
My Program:
I try to stay with my recommended calorie range, without actually going on a diet. I love veggies and fruit, seafood and lean poultry, I just have to cut down on the extra fat and sweets I occasionally crave for. I bought a fitbit in July 2013 and walking 10,000+ steps a day has greatly improved my health and well-being.
Personal Information:
Bine, from Cologne, Germany. I work as a graphic designer, and I am in training to become a counselor and therapist. I'm 48 and happily bundled up with a wonderful man. I love to read, to knit, to crochet, to walk and to swim.
