POWENCH

Hello,

I live in a small rural town in Idaho. It is a great place to live and a tough place to eat right :>). The stores here leave a lot to be desired in the way of fresh quality produce and good low fat alternatives. I find that I cannot utilize a lot of the recipies that are posted cause I have a hard time getting the ingredients, but not to whine...I am trying to overcome.

I work for the Forest Service and like a lot of people had a very active outdoor job for a long time and have now settled (literally) into a more sedentary situation. I sit in front of a computer most of the day.

I am married to the best white water rafter in the world and that is what we love to do. I have been on every major white water river in the US.

I love to travel and being overweight makes that difficult. I have exercised on a regular basis since my early 20's but as I have aged and changed job activity, I have not managed my food. I still eat like a wilderness ranger on an 8 day hitch.

I am a social extremist. I wish everyone I knew would come live with me, so we could party all time. I am the group party host and it is where I do a lot of my unplanned eating. I need to learn to manage this activity so that it does not revolve around food..or at least high calorie food.

I have no children and still spend a ton of free time outdoors. If your like me...drop me a note!
