Maintaining with Spark


What a good place Sparkpeople.com is! I have lost weight and grown stronger because of tracking--being honest about food and exercise. I have wonderful Spark friends who inspire me. I am so grateful!

I begin the new year with a focus word: TENDERNESS . For myself and others...because life is hard sometimes.

Member Since: 2/14/2012

Fitness Minutes: 165,144

My Goals:
I intend to maintain a healthy weight, to thrive doing exercise I love, and to have fun.

My Program:
 I want to live a healthy life "full out." I am healthy, and consider it my job to protect that gift!


Personal Information:
I was born in the Pacific Northwest, but live in Virginia (Metro DC) now. I always have a foot in each place--I love them both. I love the water and being outdoors and so I try to be active there when I can. The gym is a good fall back though!

Other Information:
 I am married, mother to a son, stepmom to a daughter and two sons. Grandmother to 6. Being active with my family is important--we are a movin' bunch.

    I DO THIS DAILY AND TO HELP MYSELF BY GETTING MOTIVATED TOO:
    1) when you come into Spark, on the right side, at the top, click on View My Points, and spin the wheel.If you get 25 or more, you can spin the bonus wheel.
    2) read and posting will help you get points
    3) meeting and making friendships do help you along the way on your journey
    4) staying and focusing helps you to stay motivate
    join any team(s) that you are interested in
    5) when you make a homepage, if you make any changes, make sure that you click on Save my changes, or you will have to put what you say back in.
    6) if you need any help, there are a lot of people that will help you along the way (even me)
