Joan's Journey

I have an office job and have noticed that I have been gaining a couple of pounds per year. As the years go by, the pounds add up. It is now time for a slimmer/trimmer me.

I originally joined SparkPeople back in 2009. I have been reading articles but was not 100% ready to commit start
losing weight and permanently keeping it off. It is 2012, and I am now ready!

It is now 2013, and I am 54 pounds lighter and maintaining! Life is good!

Hi!
I wanted to thank you for your support on my blog. It does feel like the walls have come crashing down; but, I am on my way back up. I've started a new exercise streak (Day 3! Woohoo!) and I am logging my food. You are right! 2013 IS my year and I'm not going to let a couple of bad days ruin everything I've accomplished so far!
Have a great night!
Deb

Just a note to thank you and everyone who took the time and effort to respond to my recent blog titled “IF SparkPeople IS SO GOOD, WHY AM I NOT THIN?” The response is overwhelming and I am literally surprised and very proud as well. It is people like y’all that make it all worthwhile.

I have added you as a friend and I hope you don’t mind.

Frank
