Introduction Text I am now a retired art teacher. I have gone forward and backward in my weight loss journey, but I have not given up. I want to take control of my health so I can enjoy my latter years to the fullest. I have put myself to the side for way too long. Favorite Quote: DIRECTION - NOT INTENTION - DETERMINES DESTINATION. I can have lots of good intentions, but if I don't take time to actually follow a direction, those intentions will get me nowhere. Sparkpeople, thank you for helping me develop my DIRECTION!
