Looking for:
Diet, Fitness, Activity, Support Buddies
About me:
I'm a music teacher in Southern California. I love music and it really is my life. I'm single and have no kids.
I once got down to a size 8 (which isn't tiny for my height of 5'1) but that didn't last long. After ending an engagement, I gained all the weight back and more.
I've been heavy my entire life, but since college and then teaching, my weight has ballooned up. This past year has been stressful, and I've tried to fix it with eating. Because of that, I gained 20 pounds this year. A lot of it was because I was eating fast food 2-3 meals a day.
I'm tired of dieting, and realize I need to change my entire outlook on food. As I've started this adventure, I've noticed already how much different eating healthy is and how much more satisfied I feel.
This will work. This has to work.
Who I hope to meet:
People who are willing to support me and accept my support for them. People who have knowledge to share. I would love to meet workout partners, but we'll see how that goes. :-)
Diet:
Trying to eat a balanced diet (more fruits and veggies) No more processed foods
Exercise:
Walking gym swimming cardio just living a more active lifestyle
