About Me

Hello my name is Dallas Parson and this is my personal section dedicated to allowing the viewers get to know me personally so let’s jump right in!

Choosing my career:

My change for a healthy lifestyle did not begin like some from a young age. I am not the most coordinated individual so being physically active in sports was never really my idea of fun until my senior year. I joined the North Posey Marching Band Color Guard in 2010 and loved every moment of it. The practices were long and usually difficult but when the band received the honor of going to and winning 8th place in Indiana District D Marching Band all of the hard work seemed to have paid off. I realized during this time period that even though I had been a vegetarian since 2007 that I needed to do more than eat healthy; I had to start living a healthy lifestyle as well. 

Once enrolled in college I began working out and eating clean on a regular bases and it was then that I realized what God wanted me to do with my life. I made the decision to begin my journey of becoming a dietitian and focusing my life on helping others achieve their full potential when trying to lose/maintain weight from eating healthy and working out.

Focused on the Present:

 I am currently a junior at the University of Southern Indiana with a major in Dietetics and minor in personal training. Along with this minor I intend to become certified as a personal trainer by the ACSM (American College of Sports and Medicine). While being a full time student I have also been working part-time as a Deaconess employee in the dietary department of food service since created an electronic portfolio at http://contentbuilder.merlot.org/toolkit/html/stitch.php?s=74375920812018. 

Purpose of Blog: 

Throughout this blog I will give helpful tips on exercise, eating healthy, inspirational stories, as well as recipes for vegetarians, vegans, and gluten free individuals. No more waiting around for excess weight to magically disappear, it is time to get active and eat healthy. STARTING NOW!
