Just so we can know who is participating, I thought we could introduce ourselves. This can be boring, I know. Maybe we can add 3 crazy facts that are rarely known about us. That might make it a little interesting. :P
I am 26 and have always been overweight. Technically, I'm in the obese range, but I prefer not to think about that.
I am doing a program at my work that encourages participants to live a healthy lifestyle. It is fantastic, but I haven't done as well as I would have liked to. I am not married, and have no children (unless you count my beautiful puppy Anah - Thanks Mrs. Tammy! I love her!) In all honesty, I treat Anah like she is my child. Don't let her hear you call her a dog. She would be terribly confused because she thinks she is human. It might even hurt her feelings.
I would like to get down to 125. Ughh. That is a low number. I don't even know if that is possible. As someone once said, "Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you will land among the stars."
My three crazy facts are:
1) I love animals so much that at one time in my life I worked at the zoo; and I had a leopard gecko lizard, four cats, and a dog as pets....all at the same time!
2) I have been to Egypt and climbed Mt. Sinai (rode a camel halfway up). My goal was to make it to watch the sunrise. I was so out of shape, that I made it 30 minutes after the sun rose. I hope to climb again, and this time to make it to watch the beautiful sunrise.
3) I have never broken a bone. I should probably find some wood to knock on.
Highest Weight: 235
Starting Weight: 224.4
Current Weight: 215.6
Goal Weight: 125
