About Me:

Writer. Thinker. Runner. Dreamer. Reader. Artist. Weirdo. Since January '13 I've lost 60 pounds. (I took a "diet break" from Nov '13 - Apr '14 so I've had 12 months of active weight loss.) Now I'm working on the final 20ish pounds! I eat wheat free, low carb (<100g/day), count calories, and try to avoid processed crap. My favorite form of exercise is running and I'm planning to do a 10K race this autumn. Or maybe I'll aim for a 5K in sub30. Farther or faster? I haven't decided for sure yet.

Why I want to get in shape:

I want to be improbable, beautiful, and afraid of nothing, as though I had wings. (Mary Oliver)
