Introduction Text I'm 36, and I've been overweight for as long as I can remember. I've let it affect the choices and decisions I've made, and I know that it's limited my options and opportunities. Now, I want more than just to lose weight; I want to be fit, active, and healthy. II want to find that part of myself that loved to ride bicycles, roller skate, and play softball. It's been more than 20 years, but I think I can find her if I do the work. I keep a periodically updated journal/blog at: http://forandring-syn.blogspot.com/

My goal is to lose at least half of my starting weight by eating healthy and to become more fit through exercise and activity. I want to make this journey as fund and interesting as i can.

My program is simple: Stay within my calorie range as often as possible, and get into the habit of exercising regularly. Getting the eating part down has been easier than the exercise, but I'm working at it and I'm not going to give up. I'm doing some walking and am making occasional trips to the pool to tread water and do a bit of swimming; I've even got a set of dumbbells now for strength training. Soon I'm investing in a fitness ball and who knows what else. I'm going with the theory that if I have different things to do, I'll stay interested and keep on truckin'.

I'm 36, married, and living in San Diego, CA; I'm from VA originally. If there's an ideal place to start a healthy lifestyle, this one is it. The weather is amazing, and there are fresh fruits and veggies available in abundance. I never thought I'd become a California girl, but I'm getting sucked in a little more every day.

I love to cook, and I'm enjoying the challenge of cooking healthier and trying new things. I'm also a bit of a computer geek, and spend far too much time messing around on this thing.
