Quality of Life Project

I have a great life, great kids and grandkids - but I won't enjoy them if I do not take care of myself, get healthy and fit. I hope that this program helps motivate me to stay on the right track!

I have been a SP for a week now. I truly am amazed at how wonderful and helpful everyone is!

As for me, I am NOT on a diet! I am on a path to better eating, health and happiness with myself!

I am so tired of buying clothes with the size X in front!!! ENOUGH ALREADY! Only I can do this, and do it for me!

I am looking for support, motivation, understanding and maybe a shoulder to cry on at times! I know this is not going to be an easy trek, but I finally realize that my past behaviors have done nothing beneficial for me. :(

Time to be a "big/little" girl and take care of myself!

Cheers to all SP!!

Greetings and

Congrats on taking the next step to reaching a healthier you by getting active with SparkPeople - it's a great community, wonderful resources and fantastic support.

Please check out the SparkTeams - I think you will find a lot of others 'just like you' there. You can choose SparkTeams by age group, lifestyle or interests, geographic location or several other ways - some of the teams you might like include the Official 10-minute Daily Exercise Streak Challenge, Starting Over Weekly Mini-Challenge Team, 10k Steps A Day and Motivation & Positive Attitude Plan but there are so many to choose from, you can have a great time looking for the ones that seem to fit you best! In fact, I suggest joining more than one group, post your intro there and write blogs as often as you can - you will find tons of friends and support that way, I promise!!

In my experience, SparkPeople is like a

in some ways - it's lots of fun and easy to make friends because we're all in this together. I like the way a HEALTHY LIFESTYLE is emphasized instead of a 'quick fix wonder diet' so it's good for people wanting to lose weight, maintain a previous loss, get healthier, improve fitness and many other goals - it's about waaaaaay more than 'just' losing weight so you have definitely come to the right place!

If you ever need any help using features of the site, there are tutorial videos under the HELP section that can show you how to use the features of the site. You can also find them on the START page and several other places on the site.

If you haven't already discovered The Spark book and/or the SparkDiet linked at the bottom of the START page, check them out - the program is simple but extremely effective. There is a TON of information on this site - so much it might even seem overwhelming but fortunately we don't have to 'digest' everything at once! The FastBreak program is a good way to start.

Another nice thing about SparkPeople is that we have permission to be human - we don't have to change everything at once or be in a hurry to reach our goals. Take a few baby steps and then a few more and before you know it, you'll have completed a long journey - I hope you enjoy this community as much as I do - it teaches us how to make positive lifetime changes because that's the only thing that will work over time!

Hi! I saw that you are new and just joined the Fibro group. Thought I'd pop over and welcome you personally. SP has great groups and the Fibro group is no exception. I'll be watching for you!!! - Cissy

There are people who make things happen, there are people who watch things happen, and there are people who wonder what happened. To be successful, you need to be a person who makes things happen.
