Kyrrdis' Spark Page


If you are curious about the name, it comes from Marion Zimmer Bradley's Darkover series. Kyrrdis is one of the four moons of Cottman IV, and is peacock-colored.

I want to lose weight to help my joints. I have stiffness and pain in several of them.

I want to be able to keep up with my friends. I want to be able to drive long distances again. Most importantly, I want to be able to dance again.

Member Since: 4/6/2008

Fitness Minutes: 46,124

My Goals:
Overall, I want to reach 140 pounds. This is the weight at which my BMI will be in the 'normal' range.

I have regained the weight I lost after my life went to h-e-double hockey sticks in 2012. I need to get back on track.

My Program:
 Old school: eat less, exercise more. May find my way back to that plan once my life is no longer in suspension.


Personal Information:
I used to live in Kentucky, but relocated to Florida to help care for my father, who passed away in 2012.

My background picture is sea grapes growing in Tampa Bay.

Other Information:
 I write mystery and horror stories. I also co-own a micropress and am its chief editor.

I love mystery stories and true crime books. As you may guess from the name, I am also fond of the Darkover series of fantasy novels.

    I too lost 100+ pounds to then lose sight of my goals for myself.

    Losing weight is more about changing lifestyles, relationship with food and putting yourself … first.

    Lesson learned … now to get the weight back off and keep it offffffffffff.

    A young lad's dream of cookin' vittles outside..WHOOSH went the fire with flames as tall as the house. Well, you don't really need a set of complete eyebrows, do ya?
    Happy Spring!
