Thanks for the replies It only took me 30 minutes to find my post, read the replies, & reply post! Sheesh! Like I said, never joined a team before....or posted here...it's a learning experience. They should have a link: find my post.

True, the sun is sporadic these last few days. I hate gloomy days. Can't wait for the sun to shine brightly again! I'm in northern Arizona - so the bright sun warms us up a bit too....not like Phoenix, thankfully!

Over my many times starting and stopping, I have found the same thing this time - spending a lot of time exploring, and getting involved

Welcome! I've found the more you put into this, the more you will get out of it and the better you will do.

Hello right back -- from "not so sunny today" Arizona. Our funny little state right? Love it though - nice to have another Arizonian to be challenged with!

Hi, this is a first for me - posting that is. I'm going to keep my avatar name for now - Radiumlight. I have been a Sparker for a few years now. I enjoy the tips & reminders here - they help to keep me motivated, although I've barely lost 10 lbs over the last 2 years.

I'm a prediabetic, just turned 59, need to lose 50 - 70 pounds but have many health issues I must deal with also. I've tackled some of these other issues with some good results and I'm ready to try again to lose the weight and get healthier - as many of my "issues" stem from being over-weight!

I've tried the tracking calories section but find that my focus is on food 100% of the day. That just doesn't work for me....I'm always thinking about what I can eat next! This new challenge seemed interesting and I've been trying to increase my veggie intake anyway.

So, good luck to us all!
