Introduction Text Here we are 2013, I've been with Sparkpeople for almost 7 years. In 7 years I have made some amazing friends who are so supportive and loving. I have learned about nutrition and fitness. I challenged myself to accomplish several 5K & 10K races and also fund-raised for the Arthritis Society and completed the Toronto Waterfront 1/2 Marathon in 2009. After completing the 1/2 in 2009, I took a little break from running and when I attempted to train again, I was pushed to far to fast and end up injured. It took a long time to get my shins back to normal. As a result - I got lazy. In the last few years I have focused more on my career than my health. Thankfully, this has been successful and my career is going where I planned. So here I am ready to make changes. Not because it is New Years Day but because it's the right time.

I want to feel good. I want to feel proud of how I look. I want to feel sexy. I want to feel strong. I can do this. I had the power all along....

My plan is to use the resources available to me. This site is a wealth of information and I also have it as an App on my smartphone. No excuse not to log my food. I also added an App to my phone to remind me to drink water. I am committed to exercising 4 days per week to start for the month of January.
