| Favorite
ways of keeping fit (form of exercise, eating plan, etc.): Weight
training, bicycling, I also do misc aerobics (varies). Eating: I
focus on portion control. There are no bad foods, just bad portion sizes.
Has
fitness/healthy living always been a part of your life? Give a little
background: No - I was the
stereotypical 98-pound weakling for most of my life: a serious bookworm.
I did the bare minimum to get through the Army Reserves training, and then
quit any exercise until my late 30s. I gained weight after two kids (was
up to 160) and my asthma really started kicking up, so I decided I could
either lay down and give up, or get going and get in shape. I lost 30 pounds
and am in better shape and living healthier than ever. |

| When
did you start posting here, and what keeps you coming back? I
started posting when I was 39 and just love the ladies here. I love the
feeling of support and acceptance - we're all just trying to be healthy
- and I appreciate the lack of fads or scams. I got to meet several of
these wonderful ladies in Asheville - and it was great! |

Anna and Alex tie
the knot.
