My Journey


I had joined Spark a long while back (in early 2006), but I was never able to stick with it.


August 2010 - I went to my doctor for my annual physical. When I saw the number on the scale I knew I had to do something.

I began by watching what I ate and getting moving. Slowly the scale moved in the right direction.



Mid-2011 - I lost my way, when I lost my job of 9 years. It took 1.5 years for me to find myself again and I had gained back most of what I had lost.



January 2013 - I was having severe stomach issues. I saw my doctor, who put my on Prilosec. I realized I needed a new approach.


February 2013 - Changed to a paleo eating lifestyle. I'm not perfect, but I do the best I can.



I have had setbacks; but I just pick myself back up and keeping going.



Adding some rewards for hitting goals. Most are just ideas. Still need one for hitting goal weight.

Got the FitBit Flex.. in person.... yay! I was nervous because they are in high demand still. Apparently another person did what I did and called ahead of time to Best Buy to have them save it.

What's your email so we can be friends on there :-)

I tried to get the Fitbit Flex in Target/Best Buy.. It's impossible! lol Wholy cow, like everyone has one now. They were sold out in a hour radius from every Best Buy near me in MA. I even checked New Hampshire... no can do. I'm prob. just gonna shell out the money online anyhow with their back order system so at least I can get it in 4-6 weeks.

Ooooh good news about the Fitbit! Yeah I am an Apple girl more than an Android girl so that will work out nicely for me. I prob. can't get it till June... bills and such :-( But I think I'll go ahead and get it in June and I'll let you know what I think :-)
