Hi there, I'm just starting out with the Sparks club myself. At present weighing in at 308; grr....too many Christmas Goodies got me over the 300 mark. Anyways, never give up I say. I quit smoking 7 years ago, and if I can do that sooner or later I'll get this under control. How did your walk go? I got myself a cold so no exercise today. Anyways, good luck and hang in there, Carol from Canada

GM to you AZ, Ohio here. It's good and early for you this morning. I work afternoons, so just getting up and about here. A cold snowy day, the warmth of AZ must be nice.

This is day one of this new challenge and I am going to get up and start my walk. Today I think I will just walk the halls of the apartment (which is very big and long), think I will try a floor at a time and then go up the stairs. Its a start for now. Catch you later.

Thank you Songchild for the welcome. Still reviewing the site to see if it helps. Since I seem to depend on the computer for communicating, I hope this works. I read an article about this site and thought here is my chance. Since money is an object for me, maybe the help and inspirations of others will keep me going. We all know what we are supposed to do, it isn't a question of education, but if I respond to people on my daily ups and downs maybe this will help motivate me as well as others. What have I got to lose but pounds! Good luck you seem to be doing well on your goals.

Welcome Rockswoman, I always say, God Bless global communication. Where I live, I have very limited contact with fellow native English speakers. Being able to interact with people with my similar cultural background has helped me a lot. If this technology was around 30 years ago I would have gone healthy way before now. Better late than never. Should you start your own topic? I know you are not alone here.

AZ,

Do you like Curves? They are having a special this month waiving the entrance fee. How long have you been going and do you enjoy it?

Hi since this is my first day there I figured this was the best place to start. A Newbie here.

Widowed over 50, wanting to better myself. The internet saved my sanity when I lost my husband, maybe dieting through the internet can save my life by helping me lose weight.

I have done all the diets, and yo-yo loses gains, today I am starting fresh. Hope everyone is as friendly as it seems.

Any and all advice and encouragement welcome.

Hey Kay,
Our goal weights are the same.

It was a lot of hard work for me to lose my 24 pounds (so far). Just don't give up especially when you want to. Welcome
