About Me
I've always emphasized "Take me as I am!" Still, in my heart, if not for my heart, I've known that I needed to lose weight. With my career and relationship on point, weight didn't seem like a real issue. As long ans I could serve up a sexy swagger in 4 inch heels, reality remained murky. In December of 2006 I decided to join Crunch gym and face my greatest vulnerbility. Let me tell you, that first month of cardio was some reality check! So far, I've lost 22 lbs in 2.5 months. I've always believed in being size-sexy and having a positive attitude but I have to admit, this recent tilt in the scale was a booster shot to my esteem. Summer is on its way and I'm ready for more... stay tuned!

Thank you all for the support. I've pushed my workout to 5 days a week and started walking my daughter to school. Besides the weight benefits, it's amazing what you can learn from a 4 year old (smile). Now I just need to get my deal with my shin splintz!
