About

After seven years (and probably seven million calories) of living in D.C., I moved to NYC in August 2008. After a few months of eating my way through the city, I realized this had to stop and nipped my temptations in the bud. Here’s the story of how a girl lost 50 pounds in the most tempting city known to woman—and then ran a marathon!

While I’ve reached my goal weight, I still consider myself a work in progress. I try to eat healthily and exercise often, but I’m not perfect, either. Follow along to see how I maintain my 50-pound weight loss despite all of NYC’s temptations.
