Why Rosey Rebecca?

How many calories do you eat a day?
I don’t really count. I’m guessing anywhere in between 1800-2200. It really depends on the day. I do pay attention to nutrition labels and ingredient lists and try to make choices based on that.

What don’t you eat?

Fast food (i.e. McDonald’s, Wendy’s, Burger King, Taco Bell).
White bread or pasta unless I don’t have a choice
I try not to eat anything processed and stick to organic/simple ingredients.
Soda

How often do you exercise?
Five to six days a week. Obviously life gets in the way sometimes, and I loveeee taking rest days.

How do you exercise?
I am a member of a gym within walking distance of my apartment. Unless it is raining, snowing, or really, really cold, I walk there. My cardio involves spinning, incline walking/running on the treadmill/outside, the crossramp elliptical or riding my bike. I generally do cardio every day and a strength workout every other day.When I don’t feel like going to the gym, I pop in Jillian Michael’s 30 Day Shred or a yoga video. I LOVE yoga and pilates. I also love taking classes at my gym. Some of my favorites include:

Spinning
Pilates
Upper Body & Abs
Pi-Yo
Body Flow
Body Pump

What do you do?
I am currently an undergrad at the University of Albany. I got my Associates degree from Westchester Community College in May 2008. I took a lot of time off in between. In 2007, I was very interested in cosmetology and worked for Sephora. I thought that I wanted to attend beauty school, but changed my mind. I started working as an Office Assistant at a Land Surveying & Engineering firm to save money to go back to school. I transferred to UAlbany in January 2009.

What do you study?
I am Journalism major and an English minor. I am very interested in Nutrition and might get a second degree in that, as well. I am currently interning and freelancing at The Saratogian newspaper in Saratoga Springs. You can read my clips here. During the fall semester, I will be receiving independent study credit for my blog and I will graduate in December.

Who is Jeff?
I often talk about Jeff in my posts. Jeff and I have been dating for 4+ years. We started dating in September 2005. He is also an undergraduate at the University of Albany studying Computer Science. We have lived together in Albany since January 2009. We met at Westchester Community College and transferred to UAlbany together.
