Need To Lose Those Last 10lbs Forever!!!

Thanks for visiting My Page! I hope you have found Sparkpeople to be as helpful as I have.
All my life I have struggled with my weight. The past 5 years I have taken off a good "chunk" but I find myself not really motivated to lose those last 10 or so pounds.
A year ago I joined Sark and did really well. For whatever reason I stopped folling the program. I didn't gain back anything but just lost motivation to continue.
So I have come back to SparkPeople to help me ...

My Goals:
I want to motivate myself to lose and keep off the last chunk of weight I want gone: maybe 10 -15 lbs. I want to make exercise something I look foreward to every day. I want to make healthy nutrition choices when I eat. I want to plan more meals rather than eating without giving thought to nutrition.

My Program:
I have an Airdyne that I really love to ride. I love to ride my bike outdoors. I also have a treadmill that I enjoy using. I have been doing weights and core exercises too. Recently I bought a stability ball and using the videos on this site am able to really feel and see the difference in my body tone. I am now using the nutrition guide to plan my meals for the following day. It makes all the difference if I have it on paper to look at with all the values I'm surprised at how much I can eat and still stay within the limits.

Personal Information:
I'm 45 and live in Michigan's beautiful Upper Peninsula. I have struggled with weight ALL of my life. I come from Italian heritage and food has always been a focal point. My heaviest weight was in t he 6th grade! My thinnest was after the birth of my 1st child(who is 22 now) when I was at my goal. I always toy with losing, but give up or give in half of way there...

Other Information:
I love to read, bike, swim,sew, (learning to quilt), travel, play on the computer, garden and be outside in the summer. I am engaged and we are building ahome on a lake. I love to get away to the lake ...very serene and full of nature. Way cool! .
