2013 is going to be my year!

I am looking forward to continuing towards my goal of a lower weight and becoming more fit.

One of my passions is breast cancer awareness and raising funds for breast cancer prevention. My best friends 24 year old daughter, Ashley, has stage IV breast cancer and I hope eventually no one will have to go through what she has. I have had many other friends and patients with breast cancer also and one day we will end it!

My NOVA Sparkers team is AWESOME and I've enjoyed ...

My NOVA Sparkers team is AWESOME and I've enjoyed our monthly meet ups and our team doing races together. You guys are the best! You all helped me go from barely walking to being much more active and completing races!

Fabulous Fitness is well...just fabulous! Love you all. I really enjoy our Fabulous Pink Lightening Divas.

The Ruby Teams are also awesome! The motivation and support with Rootin' for Ruby is unbelievable. I was lucky enough to meet a group of Ruby-Lites last year and it's a day I will never forget!

I'm a 48 year old female, trying to lose weight and get healthier and more active. So far, I've lost over 30 pounds. I have about 30 pounds left to lose to reach my goal. Would love to find friends to share struggles and triumphs with.

I have really enjoyed being involved on Spark People and meeting so many wonderful people both online and in person!

Hello, I'm Karen from BLC21 Groovy Geckos and I'm helping out newbies getting prepared for BLC22.

How did you do on the weekend challenge?...Remember even if you don't do it all...everything you did counts! Be sure you track all of your points...You don't have to do it all...we are not looking for perfection but participation...All you have to do is TRY and be accountable for it. This challenge is to help you and by participating you will always be the benefactor of your efforts!

Thanks for the compliment on my picture. I think I will go ahead and order the book. I'm hearing lots of good things from "old" sparkers!
