In one simple sentence: A 22-year-old recent college graduate trying to get healthy and fit!
In numbers: 5′0″; 137lb (Starting weight).
In the past seven years or so, I have gained approximately 36 pounds, jumping from a healthy 101 to an overweight 137. Needless to say, I just about fell off the scale and dropped dead on the bathroom floor when I saw the dreadful numbers show up on the tiny screen…
You see, I hadn’t stepped on a scale for some years too many. I knew I had gained “a few” pounds judging from my ever-increasing pant sizes and from the flab in my belly-belly, but I had no idea it was enough to skyrocket my BMI into the overweight category.
I was in shock. And the shock was more than enough to propel me into diet mode… So, here I am! Ever since September 10th, 2008, I have been counting my calories faithfully and doing cardio exercises whenever I can. Check back here often to monitor my progress!
Oh, Yes. We Can!

Yeah, I know what it’s like to get on the scale after some years. Took life slapping me upside the head to do anything about it. Keep it up on getting fit.
Best wishes.
