Introduction Text I am looking forward to continuing towards my goal of a lower weight and becoming more fit. I'm a 54 year old female, trying to lose weight and get healthier and more active. I lost 50 lbs in 2009, but I have about 30 pounds left to lose to reach my goal. Would love to find friends to share struggles and triumphs with. I have really enjoyed being involved on Spark People and meeting so many wonderful people both online and in person! Our local SparkPeople group meets for coffee, races, shopping,etc. the friendships I have made here are incredible ❤️ I am a HUGE Washington Capitals fan and Redskins fan!

My long term goal is to get healthier and more active... One step at a time! I hope to fill 2017 with walks and runs again *3-17-12* I completed my first half marathon-the Carefirst Inaugural Rock 'n' Roll Marathon.

Enjoying clean eating and more movement each day. I have been trying to add as much activity as possible. Currently I am walking every day and have been enjoying the gym with my younger daughter and a Spark Buddy.
