So, Europe had REALLY good chocolate...

Hey fellow Foodies! I'm Sarah Theurer, and you've probably been pestered by more than one e-mail from me. I really feel bad about that, but I'm so glad that you're doing this with me, so I'll get over it. ;)

I study Art and Spanish Education and I just got back from 4 months in London and traveling, and I consumed a lot of good food. I don't really regret that (especially that one Parisian patisserie [pretty sure they put opium in their food]...anyway it's time to remember what healthy habits are.

My other reasons for participating are:

• I am currently training for the Ogden Marathon in May, and with 18 credits and cold weather, I need some motivation.
• I need to break my vicious addiction to semi-sweet chocolate chips.
• At any health issue, exhaustion/common cold/breakout my mother asks, "Are you drinking enough water?"  I'd like to have an answer that didn't involve mumbling or changing the subject.

My favorite desserts are dark chocolate and frozen yogurt (don't judge me as healthy, the fruit kind is good- but I'm referring to the cheescake and chocolate flavor mix with chocolate candies and chocolate chips on top.  yeah. "Frozen Yogurt").  To exercise I love running, spin, zumba, yoga, and canyoneering/ hiking/ climbing (most things that get me outside).

I vote for an occasional dessert party or group aerobics night!

What are your favorite desserts and ways to work out?  Why motivates you to be healthier?
