I'm new and have gained some new friends on here for support today, but I'd like a few more from Alaska. I figure it'd be good for information sharing, at least.

I've lived with "bad eaters" for a few years now, and I'd like to break my cycle of using their bad habits as an excuse for my own. I also have a junk food junkie sharing my office space at work - he keeps a bucket of candy bars in a central location and eats fried food every day! My other coworkers are health nuts, but they're much farther along in their journeys. I'm hoping to find a workout partner with a membership to my gym soon to keep me motivated on the exercise front.

Since I can't absolutely count on motivation and support in my home and work presents a struggle, having other people whose stories I can follow will likely help. If those stories are close to home, all the better :)


Thanks!

  • I just moved to Alaska from Texas about a month ago! Feel free to friend me! I'm worried about the winter and how I'm going to get workouts in and keep myself interested. I live near a military base and have gym privileges there so I at least have that and home DVDs but getting outside is one of my favorite excuses to work out! The -40 to -50 degree temps do not excite me =(
