Matthew 22:37
Jesus replied: 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'

So I should probably tell you guys why I'm here, eh? Throughout my childhood, I was pretty chunky and continued to gain a mass amount of weight throughout middle school. I was in the obese range by then and it continued on until I reached my sophomore year of high school. I became fed up with being fat and decided to do something about it during my summer break between sophomore and junior year. I had lost 30 lbs. then and to this day have gained it all back. I came into college gaining the freshman 15 and even the sophomore 15! Lets just say that food hasn't been on my good side so far throughout my college career.

In the summer of 2008 it got to the point where I was fed up once again. I had a diabetes scare back in March 2008 that put me into weight loss-mode. Once school finished and with a clear mind, I started Spark in mid-May. SP was recommended to me from a friend, and I absolutely LOVE this site! Everything about it is awesome! The support, the nutrition and fitness tracking, and my weekly weigh-ins have kept me on track.

I'd love to get to 130 lbs. some point in time by the end of 2013. I've definitely yo-yo'd with weight for the past 7 years and would love to stop that - hopefully getting to my goal weight and maintaining. I have great faith in God and know the Lord will help me in this process!!
