My favorite Spark activity is having a place to come to each and every day despite what craziness might be happening around me and knowing I've got the best support around! Having a place where I can ask questions, seek answers or even give them, and find daily motivation is an gift. I LOVE it all- tracking, spinning, teams, articles, blogs, recipes, etc....
My favorite Spark activity is , believe it or not, just simply being here , joining with, sharing, and enjoying the company of some pretty lovely people.

I have the most confidence in myself when I ..... am true to my goals. Just knowing that I am on a path to good health (& curviness) gives me a smile as wide as the Matanuska River (it's big)!

When the sun sets on a Summer' s evening I ..... sit quietly in a screened porch listening to the birds sing & the leaves rustle in the breeze.
There is something rather nice about maturity which is having the memories, history, & knowledge to carry us through tough times realizing there is happiness just around the bend - we have so much influence on our lives, maturity has allowed me to recognize that.

One of the nice things about growing older is ...... you can convince people you have lived long enough to be wise (but not aged.)
My happiest childhood holiday was being at home during the six weeks of mid-summer,because of the promise of adventures and fun shared with the other village children.

My best childhood summer was a weeks holiday spent with a girl friend and her family at Bethel's Beach a wild surf beach on the West Coast of Auckland. A favourite beach of mine I loved the wildness of the sea with the huge waves smashing over the rocks and through the caves and blow holes.
(It's a repeat in a sense, because loved this subject too ! )

This holiday weekend I'm going to stay on track by ... drinking lots of liquids and trying to stay in my calorie limits.
Going to the gym is great but ..it doesn't always fit into my life. I have many activities I do at home. It saves me money and helps me feel stronger even when I can't get to the gym when it is open.

Perhaps if I were to be more realistic ..... I wouldn't expect this weight to disappear overnight! Wishful thinking I'm afraid.
I am so close to my goal , and yet frustratingly it often seems to be just out of reach !

The biggest obstacle to becoming healthier & how I'm dealing with it is .... my medications which makes it hard to lose weight, but I keep exercising and trying to watch what and how much I eat. Some days maintaining is a win!
