Hi I am Francesca and I am a year and 5 months into the Sparks Program. I started at 175 and I think today I am 145 but I have not been on the scale yet today! Anyway, I am a vegetarian, actually a vegan and it makes it harder I think because of all the complex carbs I need to eat but I work out a great deal and so far so good. I get allot of support from Teri, one of my friends that I met online here. My goal is 140. I am 57 years old and that makes it even harder I think. Good luck to ...

Hey, there, Francesca!

Yea, my journey has sure taken a nice turn. I'm feeling pretty darn stoked, with the changes my body is making, recently, that's for sure!!

It helped that I joined another site, more focused on fat loss and muscle building, vs this one, where it's mostly about *scale* loss. I love Spark..but I found myself just spinning my wheels. Now, I have a focus, and like minded people around, who understand what I'm reaching for. You know what I mean?

So, how are you doing? Your reply sounded like you may have reached a roadblock, perhaps?? Sure hope not..you were doing really well.

All each of us can do, is to keep testing the waters, till we find that perfect fit. It's out there, trust me! It took *me* 48yrs to find mine...but I did! We all can, as long as we don't give up the fight! emoticon
