About Me

Well I just graduated college with a degree in Engineering. I'm very proud of myself for that because it was not easy. But with all the late nights of studying plus college life, eating out all the time, no time for the gym, I let myself go and gained about 20lbs. Now I'm working full time and have a more structured schedule so I'm trying to fit in diet and exercise into my daily life. I don't want to be skinny I just want to feel good about the way I look and feel and be in good shape to do more outdoor activities!

Why I Want To Get In Shape

I did it two summers ago and felt on top of the world! I had so much energy, I was so happy and sociable, now I don't even like to go out that much because I'm dreading going into my closet to TRY and find something to wear.

I'd also like to get back into playing tennis n other sports which I used to love.

READY TO LIVE AGAIN!!!!

My Inspirations

  • My mom who looks GREAT at 58
  • All the clothes I've bought for WHEN I lose the weight! (SIZE 10)
  • My boyfriend who is committed to being healthy! - Trying to follow his footsteps
  • NOTHING TASTES AS GOOD AS BEING FIT FEELS~!

Congrats on your 7 pound loss! I gave you a grocery list, tips, and good advice...I'm glad it's working for you! I haven't heard from you lately and was thinking about you. I am waiting for my "official" promotion to come in to play as I work for the Army and have to wait for the end of the pay period for that. When it comes, I will have to say "Good-bye", but not for long. I won't be able to come in to the site as much, but I'll stop by from time to time.

Blessings!

Eva

How are you doing? It seems like our little message board is slowing down some, but I hope you're still doing great and seeing some fantastic results!
