I've kind of stared at this question for a while. I don't pick apart my body -- it's a complete package and all connected. I want to be healthy, injury-free, fast, coordinated, and strong. My body is making steady progress towards those goals, so I'm pretty happy with it overall.

Hey everybody! My name's Noelle, from Baton Rouge but going to Spain in a couple weeks.
I love chocolate, love love peanut butter, and die for cake or muffins or anything like that.
During my last semester at college (I'm currently a sophomore), I was very active and very motivated, lived close to the school gym, had friends to work out with, and had lots of things to distract me from eating delicious foods 24/7. Without school and friends and challenges, I lost all my toning and gained back my high school flab! I'm just not motivated and I need to find it again!
I love swimming, biking, yoga, and pilates!
This year, I would love to learn how to kick box, or how to dance!
I used to hate my butt, but a few thousand squats firmed that up! Now my stomach is flabby again, so that's what I'm most upset about.
I love my shoulders, my back, and my calves! If I can just get the fat melted off my middle and hips, I'll be happy!
In 2012, I just want to shred the fat and let my beautiful pilates muscles show through again! I want to be strong and toned and lose inches!0 -
