Here it is, Houston!

ABOUT ME

Hey y’all! And welcome to Hungry and Healthy in Houston!  I’m an Alabama native that was forced to pack up and move to Houston for The Boy’s job.  I’m not complaining. I love it so far, although I’ve yet to meet many people between traveling back and forth to Alabama for the WEDDING!

The Boy and I are getting married on March 23rd and I’m not going to lie, I’m nervous.  Mainly b/c the aisle at the church is extremely long and I don’t like to be the center of attention! Here’s to hoping I can make it down it! The Boy’s name is Al and he’s an engineer for an oil company.  He works offshore on a 14 on, 14 off schedule, so that can be hard.  We make it work though.

MOTIVATION 

My main motivation to be healthy is the wedding, but I have a feeling I’m going to need something else as soon as that is over and done with.  I’m hoping this blog can keep me accountable and help me to make healthier choices as I begin my new role as a wife.

In 2012, I ran my first half-marathon in San Antonio, Texas.  My hope is to run another fall race in 2013! I’m dying to try Cross Fit and plan on joining a box as soon as we get settled in April. I’ve been researching them for a while and think I’ve found a couple of good ones near our house.

CAREER

I’m a Registered Court Reporter, but Texas is crazy and has their own certification rules for court reporters.  My plan is to take the Texas certification test in June and pass with flying colors, of course!
