Introduction Text Updated: 2/24/21 Aloha and welcome to my Spark Page … I've been on a weight-loss journey most all my life. You'd think I'd be a pro by now but, alas, not the case. I'm still learning. The last year or so I have made real progress however so there seems to be some light at the end of this long dark tunnel and I'm going to continue heading for it! Being here on Spark the past seven years has helped direct my path to a healthier lifestyle and introduced me to some wonderful new friends. Hopefully it will do the same for you!
