Introduction Text My name is Sharon, and my goal for this year is to lose some weight so that I can be healthy again. In December of 2006 I had a medical scare and discovered how I had neglected my health over the years, it was truly a wake up call for me. I realize that we have to be responsible for our own health, and I also know that it is important for women to realize that the # 1 killer is heart disease. So my aim is to stay healthy. I have been looking over some of the pages here and to my dismay have found that a lot of us here have health issues and it really sent a wake up call to me that we need to get our temples in order. I know that I don't move as much as I should so I am looking for a buddy system to help me reach that goal for this year. " I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills from whench cometh my help, my help cometh from the Lord who made heaven and earth."PSALM 121:1-2 . I have been away from Sparkspeople for a while now, and I have gained all of my weight back including a pound...I have been through some very trying times within the last 3 months with the passing of my Dad in May and then my little brother committing suicide in August, it has been more then I can bare so I have started eating more and more and gaining my weight back and not exercising.. I can feel that the weight is taking a toll on my body, I just turned 60 in July so I know that at this stage in my life I really need to be mindful of my diet. I believe that our bodies are the temple of God and we should be very careful what we put into them, if we do our part God will do his. I have so much to live for and I want to do it in a healthy body, while I realize that not everyone is going to be thin, I do believe that we can be healthy. It is the choices that we make that will determine how we feel and look. I am ready for this battle once again, and I do believe that I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength. I do look forward to my new journey here at SP.

My goals for this year is to lose weight, to get on an airplane for the first time, and to get more physically fit. also I would like to publish a book of my poems.

Right now my program consists of eating better, less red meat,drinking at least 8 glasses of water a day, and walking about 2 or 3 times a day for at least 20 to 20 minutes. I am taking little baby steps until I can do better.

I am from Detroit, but I currently reside in Warren mich.I am the Mother of four grown children, and I am a very proud grandmother of twelve. I now have a beautiful Great Granddaughter, and I am in School.

I love reading ,and writing my own poetry. I like to journal because it helps me keep foucused on the things going on in my life.My favorite movies are "Diary of a mad black women" by Tyler perry,and a "Long walk home" with Mindy Moore.

Add a Link My favorite scripture is "Psalm 27" "The Lord is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear".
