Achieving Balance
Hi I'm Victoria. I'm sure I could list off a variety of reasons why I am here, and you could all relate...bottom line is...I'm sick of being the way that I am and I need to change!!
I started the Spark program just before the new year, so I haven't been at this long, but I have already gained so much valuable information! For me, keeping track of what I put in my mouth is key. I had no idea I was consuming so many calories! Now I do and I track everything..and it's working. ...

Maybe the biggest key factor for me was to not put a time limit on when I would get to my goal. I know when I would like to reach my goal, but if it doesn't happen that's okay, I won't give up!
I drink lots of water all day long and take supplements which have really helped keep me feeling good...body and mind.
I got a Polar heart rate monitor (ft60 with gps) on April 1st. Since then, I have been religiously walking 5 times per week, usually 5+ miles each time...and it's workin'!!
