Pets: 2 dogs a Samoyed and a Yorkie

Work: Full time accountant for a large manufacturing company

Location: Springfield, IL

Age: 35

Marital Status: Married

Kids: Adrianna (will be 17 this year)

Pets: Voodoo and Siren, Siberian Huskies

Work: Operations for a large call center.

Plan: Perfect 10 Diet (unprocessed,) but I started here on the Beach and that's where my heart is!

Weight loss challenges: Potatoes, cheese, and beer. Or wine. Or tee many martoonis.

Tent or spa: When I was younger? Tent. Now? Spa please.

Ocean or mountains: Ocean please! Gulf of Mexico, specifically. Key West 2016, baby!!!!!!!!!!

User Name: Spearmintskies
Name: Taylor
Gender:F
Age (or general age group): 22
BIRTHDAY: Jan. 26

MARITAL STATUS: Single, but seeing someone wonderful. Don't plan on being married for a very long time, if at all.

TOP WEIGHT: 197 (The day I went into labor)
SBD STARTING WEIGHT: 182
GOAL WEIGHT: 150. My pre-pregnancy weight and the weight I felt best at. I was at the peak of my health here. I felt like I could take over the world.
HEIGHT: 5'7"
EYE COLOR:Blue
HAIR COLOR: Blonde and lavender
LOCATION: Pacific NW Washington
KIDS: One almost 3 year old boy.

PETS: a sweet 8 year old kitty who lives at my parents at the moment, as I'm in an apartment and she is a mostly outdoor cat.
CURRENT JOB: I'm a bartender at a taproom and bottleshop that features 800 bottled beers/ciders and 16 taps.
PREVIOUS JOB: Barista at Starbucks

Why did you choose South Beach? I've done the SBD with my mother once or twice when I was a teenager and I really enjoy that it focuses on real, nourishing foods as well as teaching you how to eat, rather than just restricting and making me feel deprived. It's the diet that I've had the most long-term success with.
FAVORITE BOOKS: I enjoy historical fiction, biographies, and general fiction.
FAVORITE KINDS OF MUSIC/BANDS: alternative, love classical piano, anything with a nice calm beat. I love Coldplay.
FAVORITE HOLIDAY: I love the winter holidays. Christmas and Thanksgiving. It's awesome time with family.
HOBBIES: gardening, research, cooking, brewing beer, reading and playing video games (especially simulation games)
FAVORITE COLOR: "Think of the sunrise on the water during a foggy morning." Cool hues of blues, greys, and greens. Earthy tones.
FAVORITE FOODS: Korean food is my all time comfort food, veggies, nectarines, bananas and peanut butter, fresh baked breads and chocolate cookies. <3
FAVORITE EXERCISE: I like jogging but I've never been very good at it, I get embarrassed. Love yoga and basically anything that's fun, challenging, and makes me feel good for the rest of the day.

PROBLEM IN WEIGHT LOSS: Having junk in the house causes me to lose my self control. I haven't had the habit of regular exercise since I got pregnant (3.5 years ago) and I really, really, love beer. Many of my friends are also involved in the craft beer scene and it's always been hard to say no and to find a balance when it involves my social life.
WHAT IS DIFFERENT THIS TIME THAT WILL MAKE YOU SUCCESSFUL:
I am so insanely tired of being where I am and not having the body I know I can have again. I'm tired of not being at my prepregnancy weight where I felt best. I'm doing this with my mother so I'll have more accountability, and I am very serious about my long-term health and weight. People keep telling me that I'm young and shouldn't worry about food/exercise/alcohol, but I have my son to live for and I know that it's possible to be conscious of your health while having a fruitful life at the same time.
Beach or Mountains? Both. I live in between 2 mountain ranges and am literally on the Puget Sound. It's gorgeous and amazing and I wouldn't have it any other way. Being 5 minutes away from the water and 30 minutes away from Mt. Rainier is the best.
Tent or Spa: Tent. Save the spa for when you come back. ;]
