I CAN
I am a mother of 3 handsome boys. I have been yo-yo dieting for some time but to no avail. Finally my sister introduced me to the wonderful world of running. We trained for 6 weeks before we ran our first 5k. At the start of the 6 weeks I was weighing in at close to 200lbs. Over all in 9 months I lost 50lbs. The weight stayed off for a year but then....BOOM 20lbs back on. This is my time and it's time to change!!!!!!!

My Goals:
My goals are to lose weight...but I am focusing more on changing my eating habits. I do not just want to lose the weight. I want...or should I say; I WILL change my lifestyle!
My Program:
To meet my goals I am tracking everything that I consume throughout the day. Adding lots of water helps curb hunger by keeping me feeling full. I love to run so I make sure I get some running in just about everyday. Adding strength training helps tone my muscles and keeps me moving.
Personal Information:
I absolutely love the Bartram Trail. This trail is full of beauty and history. Also, the south end of the Appalachian Trail connects to it.
Other Information:
Excuses are like bricks. Keep making excuses and next thing you know you've built a brick wall between you and your goals!!

Thanks for the add and I have added you as well. I have made a commitment to myself to check in on Spark Friends at least once a week...it may be a goodie, a comment on your page, a comment on your blog, or a comment on your feed. Feel free to give a shout out if ya need extra support some time...we all do!!! Have a great week! Spark On!!! 
on taking the first steps to a healthier you. A 
toast to a healthier and more enjoyable life! 
prayerfully you will find that you can enjoy it more than you would ever imagine!!! 
to Spark People. 
don't 
to the temptation of making the journey all about the numbers. It is not about pounds taken off or inches trimmed, it is all about creating a healthier and more fit you. 
Be on the lookout for the many, many, many non-scale non-tape measure victories you will achieve. Feeling healthier, breathing easier, enjoying activities that were once a drudgery, trying something new and enjoying it, choosing a healthy snack versus an unhealthy option, choosing a less than healthy food option over a decadent food option! The possibilities for non-scale victories are ENDLESS. 
drink plenty of water every day! 
sleep well, it is probably more important than you know. 
healthier every day. 
every day. 
when you need to --it is healthier than emotional eating! Find ways to 
exercise that you ENJOY. The right form of exercise is the one you can stick with regularly!!! Something else may burn more calories in a shorter time, but if it makes you give up you won't burn any calories! 
MAKE EVERY STEP COUNT. Even steps that seem to move you backwards or to the side have a purpose. Sometimes it is just to get another look at something you passed by without noticing. 
KICK THEM TO THE CURB. You aren’t interested in FINDING them again. GET RID OF THEM through hard work, determination, accountability, whatever it takes!!!
