Sunrise

Monday, March 22, 2010

This morings sunrise was awesome. As I was driving in to work for my secound monday on spark, I was thinking about what I would put in to my blog for today. The sunrise reminded me that even though I may have an unmotavating day, like yesterday, I know that the sun will rise on the next day and that I will be motavated by that.

Have a great day.

It sounds like you still have the vision on where you're going and what you want to achieve... Keep that thought on the days you aren't as motivated. Report Inappropriate Comment

Hard Day

Sunday, March 21, 2010

Today was a hard day. I felt as though I was unmotavated today. I did get my 10,000 steps in and I did save calories for the fried fish that I had today but did not seem like a productive day. I did meet all of my goals though. o well I will keep the spark alive and get motavated for tomarrow.

ODE TO WINTER

Saturday, March 20, 2010

O winter how cold you are,
sometimes dreary sometimes fair
O winter, your challenges I must bear,
Winter, in you I have found my Spark
O winter, winter I must go to the park.


Keep the spark alive!!!!

Grocery Store Temptations

Friday, March 19, 2010

I went to the grocery store yesterday to buy healthy lunches and snacks so that i do not go to a fast food joint. I walked in to the store and there was all of the easter candy and sugar filled pop. As I moved down each isle I found temptation to put fudge brownies and prepackaged cookies and other goodies in to my cart. I ended up with no junk food and found a tasty option for my cookie craving: Tolhouse oatmeal raisin cookies. ONLY 160 CAL. for 2 cookies. Great idea for a little something sweet.

Have a sparktackular day

Temptations are tough and you conquered a major temptation on your shopping day!....Before the next shopping trip check out some Spark Recipes and put those ingredients on your list. Report Inappropriate Comment

It is an never ending line of temptation at the grocery store. Going hungry is always the worst thing to do. Keep up the good work! Report Inappropriate Comment

Grocery shop after you've eaten, that way temptation will be less. Great job not going for the junk good. Your body is loving you for that choice! Report Inappropriate Comment

Great job on passing up the junk food! Shopping is always the hardest part of staying healthy. I avoid the bakery and candy isles, so not to be tempted. If its not brought home, then it won't be eaten. Keep up the good work! Report Inappropriate Comment
