Healthy Berg: About

Hi! My name is Krista, I'm 25 years old, and I'm the blogger behind Healthy Berg.

I have quite the history with this little blog.

I started it way back at the very end of 2010 with the goal of documenting the rest of my weight loss journey. You see, at that time I had lost over 100 pounds with diet and exercise and was about 40 pounds away from my goal weight.

However, things didn't exactly go as planned and despite my efforts to lose, I ended up maintaining my weight for about two years. That didn't stop people from reading though, and for that I am forever grateful. Thanks to you guys, my story was even featured on MSN.

I wish I could say that I maintained my healthy lifestyle and kept the weight off, but I didn't. One could say that I got a little too comfortable, and I started dealing with outside stressors by eating like I once did years ago. Over the past two years, I've gained about half of the weight back. Now it's time to take charge of my life again! My goal now is to use this blog for it's original goal: to document my weight loss journey.

While my weight has always been a huge (no pun intended) part of my life, it's definitely not my whole life. In May 2012, I graduated from pharmacy school with my Doctor of Pharmacy degree after going to college for six years.

I graduated from Ferris State University's College of Pharmacy, and for those who would like to know more details about the program you may be intested in my pharmacy school page. I I took my board exams in June and became a licensed pharmacist in July.

I currently live in Traverse City, MI and I work full time at a local pharmacy. Traverse City is such a beautiful place and I'm proud to call this town my home.
