Taking it One Day at a Time
After quite a bit of an absence I am back on Spark.
Several years ago I started with Spark, and managed to get under 200lbs for a short while. Then the yo yoing began again.
Update: 8/25/12 - Wow .. My last update of my profile is exactly where I am at again... My dad passed away this past June. My brother said he'd stop smoking if I'd agree to get back into exercise and healthier eating. I of course agreed - would do anything to get him to stop smoking! So ... here I am ...

I am now back to where I was when I first started several years ago.
This time however I am not going to use the scale as a measurement, nor am I going to use a measuring tape.
My only focus is to take it one day at a time. Make the healthy choice regarding what I am eating or what activity I am doing or not doing - one day at a time.
My name is Laura. I am 36 and find that time is moving quickly.
