Great ideas! I spin the wheel and do trivia a lot. I pretty much bomb at trivia most of the time, but I figure Im learning as I go.

I set a goal of getting 50 points a day - love the Games Board and Trivia as well as the Blog list. I've set several daily goals and also get points for tracking what I've eaten. Today was a good day - 20 points on the wheel!

Create a budget on SparkSavings.com 1 time / 25 points

I go thru the "my spark points list" every day to get points for the different categories each day. (Click on the orange my tracker icon at the top left, then click on my spark points. It shows the list of all the ways to get points.)

The will of God will not take you where the Grace of God cannot protect you.

Give me a sense of humor, Lord,

Give me the grace to see a joke,

To get some humor out of life,

And pass it on to other folk!

EXERCISE!!!!!!!

Exercise 1st... Spark 2nd. Works for me!

Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.

Instead of giving myself reasons why I can't I give myself reasons why I can.

Tired of starting over? Stop giving up!!

NEVER QUIT =]

Weight loss is accomplished with the mind.


A person who wants something WILL find a way....a person who doesn't will find an excuse.

Which do you prefer?
The pain of self discipline?....or...the pain of self regret?
