Getting Healthier Every Day

Update: I am starting new today 1-3-09!!! I vow to NEVER GIVE UP!!!
Hi! Today is the day I stop fooling myself & get control of my life. I grew up a fat child & when I graduated from High School I was 200#. When I went to college I found that I could actually control my weight and I lost 70 lbs. Well, over the years the weight has gradually crept back on. I have been procrastinating for many years now & today I am gong to stop. Today I am in control!!!

Hi Saw you had just joined SP...you have come to a great place for information, support, motivation and ideas. Plus you might even have some fun!
If you ever have any questions, either sparkmail someone or just give a shout out on one of the message boards and someone will surely come running!
There are many teams...almost overwhelming but find a few that meet your needs or interests and get active on them. Motivating others will motivate YOU. I am 61 and have been a member for awhile but it took me til around Christmas to finally kick it into gear. As with any journey there are ups and downs ....but hopefully more ups than downs!

Welcome to SparkPeople!

I started last June and by using Spark and some self discovery in the process, I'm down 25 pounds, and am holding steady at a healthy weight. Spark is a massive site, you will be discovering new and exciting things for at least two months! Good luck and enjoy this invigorating new healthy lifestyle.
