Getting Back to Basics
I started SparkPeople in January of 2008 and lost 40 lbs in six months. I really felt strong and confident, but somewhere after I reached my first goal I started slipping backwards. I just returned from a family vacation and I am creeping up to the original weight that brought me to Spark People in the first place. I can't believe I let myself get here again! I know what I need to do and SP will be a HUGE part of my recovery process. I originally started this journey as a gift to myself ...
I started SparkPeople in January of 2008 and lost 40 lbs in six months. I really felt strong and confident, but somewhere after I reached my first goal I started slipping backwards. I just returned from a family vacation and I am creeping up to the original weight that brought me to Spark People in the first place. I can't believe I let myself get here again! I know what I need to do and SP will be a HUGE part of my recovery process. I originally started this journey as a gift to myself for turning 40. I'm 42 now and I want to feel healthy, strong and confident again. I want to stop putting off buying new clothes because I want to wait until I'm my goal size! I want to feel comfortable having my picture taken or looking in the mirror. I know I hold the key to all of these things and more. I'm back on track for now and looking forward to this journey and all the things I want to accomplish!
January 2011: Ready for a fresh new year. I have been pretty consistant in December with exercising, nutrition and tracking. The holidays are always hard but overall I made good choices. I am excited to start over and see results! Looking forward to participating in the BLC15. Go Forest Green Pixies!
