Hello! My name is Sariah Sunvison and I am an emotional eater. Food has always been the biggest obstacle to my health and wellness (and lets be honest, looking good in a bathing suit) goals. Its an endless cycle - the worse I feel, the more food I eat, the fatter I get, so the worse I feel...and so on. I have these "special" 15 pounds that I gain and lose over and over again. I would like to get my eating under control and hopefully remain at a reasonably steady weight! My hopes are that my accountability to this group will stop curb some this emotional eating. I need to learn to eat to live, not to eat for comfort!
Exercise has never been a problem for me. I love physical activity and am currently very active. For the last couple of years my fitness goals have been all about improving my performance in my chosen hobby/extracurricular activity - roller derby! I go to two hour long practices at least three times a week. I hope to get stronger and faster, thereby becoming a better player and a more reliable teammate for the great group of women I skate with!
I look forward to this challenge and I am especially looking forward to reaping the benefits of just plain feeling healthier and (HOPEFULLY) looking better. (What can I say? I'm ultra vain!) Any monetary rewards that might come along are just icing on the (calorie-free) cake!
Sariah
Amen, Sariah! I am also working on watching my emotional eating and really thinking about what triggers it (aka what I REALLY want:)). Love that you rock it out at roller derby, what a fun sport!
