Member Since: 10/7/2009

Fitness Minutes: 4,439

My Goals:
In order of priority...

Goal #1: being healthier overall.

Goal #2: Get below 200 pounds (199 is enough) by my birthday in June 2010.

My Program:
 I use the Nutrition tracker every single day to record the food I eat and to try to stay within the recommended amount of calories, carbs, fat & protein.

This has led me to make much smarter choices and to control my portion sizes.


Personal Information:
I live in Mount Pearl, NL. The NL is for Newfoundland Labrador, a province in Canada. My nickname growing up was Flipper, hence my username FlipprNL.

    Thanks for reading my blog and for the very kind words. It felt like you got it.

    Agree completely--the tracking tools, reports and educational articles on the SP site are fabulous, but it's the people who really make the difference. SP friends have kept me going when I'd have walked away--as I have done many times in recent years.

    I got a kick out of the fact that your target weight, like mine, ends in a 9. Wonder if SP has done a poll on "most popular last digit." I'm guessing 0, 5 and 9 would be the top contenders.

    It's great that your daughter is picking up your new habits. Best of luck in the "Biggest Loser" contest.

    Have a great day--
    Mel in ATL

    Thank you soo much for commenting on my blog. Your words, have helped me more than you know. Today, was a big "Reminder Day" and your right. I once ate like I did and worse every single day of my life. Once my weight was as high as 314. So, thank you again. I will remember this as I continue on my journey. I'm going to copy your response to me and put it on my desk at school and another copy on my desk at home. Thank you, again.
