Introduction Text I lost 58 pounds between the latter half of 2009 and the first half of 2010. After losing my way and gaining back an initial 10 lbs, followed by another 10 lbs (in the fall of 2010) I finally reached my breaking point and said enough was enough. Life can get hectic, stressful and downright hard at times. Facing some of my fears and healing emotionally from some pretty severe things from my childhood has been my focus for the last several months. One thing that I was forgetting was how hard I worked and how proud I was of myself for losing almost 60 pounds. I was surprised how easy it was to take a break and then slowly slip back into old habits. I wont allow my life to end up right back where I was in the summer of 2009. This time around I have my past experience to guide me and more skills and information that I learned a while ago. So it's not like starting from scratch. It's more like getting back on the exercise bike I got off of. I hope you join me! ~ Carina PS. I am resetting my weightloss ticker to correspond with my new start and new goal for November. I will be sad to see the progress gone, but motivated to move that little ticker! :)

To track my food intake and exercise on SparkPeople. Exercise 5-6 days a week and to lose my body fat (30-60 mins a day). To stay focused and positive!

Treadmill: One or two 30 minute sessions per day (uphill walk, steady jog or interval training): 5-6 days/wk Exercise Bike: 3x/wk as needed, not my fav thing to do, but it's ok if I put a movie on to watch. :) Curves Circuit Training: 3-4x/wk as schedule will allow

I live just outside of Vancouver, BC. I have three children (19 yrs, 9 yrs, 6 yrs). I have a crazy (but sweet) cat named Piper and I'm going on a cruise in September (thanks to my eldest!)

I have lost a total of 30.5 inches off my body so far!
