Introduction Text I am an elementary computer teacher in a small town in central Wisconsin. I never really had a "weight problem" per se however after 3 children, little physical activity and other priorities, I did not like what I saw in the mirror. I set off to change myself for myself. I began with walking and learning about portion control. I have really changed my life especially in regard to fitness and healthier eating. I had an image in my head that real runners wore spandex and had beautiful bodies. It was my first race (5K) that changed my mind. The old, young, fat, thin and everyone in between was running and their efforts were cheered on by total strangers. Each time I run is a reminder that taking care of myself is important- physically and mentally.

I have met my scale goal and have lost just a bit more than 25 lbs since starting this journey. I want to continue to stay healthy, strong and fit!

I eat healthier- better choices, appropriate portion and not mindlessly. I weigh myself daily to keep myself accountable. I am a daily runner but I am starting to incorporate lifting and core exercises.

I live in the country, close to Amherst, WI - I am an early elementary computer technology teacher.
