I appreciate each and every person that drops by my page! Why? Because your support helps me make it through they day! It means the world to me to know I am not on this journey alone!
I stumbled across SparkPeople by accident back in May of 2007 and I do believe it is one of the BEST things that has ever happened to me!
I know this journey IS different for EACH person, but I started with drinking my 8 glasses of water a day and logging my food. Let me just say that logging my food was a HUGE eye opener... DANGER! DANGER! From there I moved on to exercise which for me consists of walking, walking and yes, more WALKING... GRIN!
I honestly believe that if I can make the change... You can too!
Anything IS possible!
Good luck!
Take this journey to a new and improved, healthier you... One step, one meal and one day at a time!

Quotes That Inspire Me:
When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive, to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love. - Marcus Aurelius
The person who says it cannot be done, should not interrupt the person who is doing it! - Author Unknown
One setback is one setback! It is not the end of the world, nor is it the end of your journey toward a better you! ~ Jillian Michaels
Any improvement you make to your body will wash into other areas of your life, because when you feel better, you are better. ~ The Naked Cowboy
The miracle isn't that I finished. The miracle is that I had the Courage to Start. ~ John J. Bingham
For years, I took care of my husband, my business, my kids...I tried to be everything to everybody, and somewhere along the way I lost myself. You cannot be everything to everybody and not take care of yourself. From this day forward, I'm going to take time to take care of myself. And I'm going to finish this journey. ~ Liz Young BL 8

Miss Shelia for checking in on me, yeah, I kinda had a bit of drama at work, as I explain a bit in the daily chat thread, but all is a-ok now!
