In June I will be on Spark five years! woohoo!
Five years on Spark fighting through major and minor health issues along way - may have detoured me on my journey to losing weight but it has never waylaid me to leave spark. I continue to Spark on through it all - learning new ways to gain health. I have left 6 specialists in the medical field - woohoo! and I have gained so much health!
I have had twelve surgeries/procedures - eight within the last 9 years.
I dont make resolutions. I make commitments to myself, knowing that along the pathway to health, I will take many detours on this journey.
I do have goals I strive to meet.
I have learned that I have to be willing to give and to take, push and to shove, fighting my way - full blast head first through conflict, defeat, and sometimes even despair. But, always on my way I go.
I know that my God, well He is limitless. I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength. I shall overcome and I shall not give in.
One health issue after another, does not get me down, it builds me up.
Come back soon.. I change my theme often!
