A New Day, A New Attitude!


The time is now. I'm tired of my weight being an issue. It's holding me back, limiting me, and keeping me locked in this place of self-doubt.
I feel that something is shifting within me -- a change for the better.
I have a long road ahead, but I've already taken the first step of the journey. Even though I have a supportive husband, I'm looking to Spark for additional encouragement through other members. It's up to me.
I have the power. I CAN DO THIS!

 Clean eating, exercise 5 days a week, and drink lots of water. Take vitamins daily. Be creative by trying new recipes to avoid getting into a food rut. Use a journal to express feelings and avoid emotional eating. Don't allow others to affect my success with negative comments and lack of support.

    Looking for a Fun Challenge this Summer? Want to get connected with a Team to support you through your Journey to a Healthier Lifestyle. If yes, then consider joining the BL Challenge that starts early June. Each week 11 teams of 24 Active, do fun nutritional and fitness challenges. The challenges promote a healthy lifestyle and If for some reason you cannot do a challenge then they are modified to meet your needs. Often we do the challenge in a game form, we have BINGO and TIC TAC TOE or seasonally themed. For Spring we had Gardening Time, Help Fill Peter Rabbit’s Basket and Bingo. If you decide this might be for you you can leave your name on the waitlist for the Summer challenge. To get to the Challenge go to my page and click on the “BLUE BIGGEST LOSER” Icon, or copy and paste the link below, or let me know and I can send you an invite. Join the Team then sign up on the waitlist. It’s the thread right below the Chit Chat.

    Hi Doreen! Thanks for the goodie! So glad to see you back!! Everyday is a new day to make a positive change. I have been sliding a bit in the last few weeks, I have been travelling for work and it's so hard to eat and drink what I should when I have to pay for every single thing. Glad to see you are here and sparking on!!

    Nice to see you. I am doing the Keto diet and loving it. This is my 4th week, I weigh in on Wednesdays. so far lost 10 pounds. I am feeling so much better! I am not hungry all the time. I am also healing my leaky gut. That is the key to my success. Have a wonderful week it was so nice hearing from you, I am sick of feeling like crap. Only I can take control and do this for me. I am blessed to be care giving my Mother, need to be in better shape as she ages. she will be 94 next month. Ta Ta, Velvet emoticon
