Introduction Text I'm 51 years old; living since the summer of '07 in the Rochester, NY area with my husband, two teenage sons and our sc hnauzer/poodle mix, Maggie. I'm a librarian by training and am currently working part-time from home, doing research for a management consulting firm. In my spare time I love to read, take walks, play with my dog, and go to theater and concerts.

--To finally lose and keep off those last 15 pounds. I have been struggling with my weight and body image almost all of my life, and I refuse to turn 50 and still be in the same situation. To accomplish this I plan to: --Get into and stick with an exercise routine that includes both cardio and strength training --Become aware of emotional eating and find other ways to deal with stress, worry, conflict, etc. --Understand my nutritional needs and eat appropriately so that I feel satisfied and healthy.

--Follow the diet & exercise plan set up for me by SparksPeople!
