My Journey
Wow! I just realized that on the 9th of January, I will celebrate my 2nd Spark-iversary! It seems like only yesterday that I found this site and decided to start the journey that has taken me beyond what I had thought were my personal limits. I have learned a lot about myself in these last two years, and perhaps the most important thing that I have learned is that limits are generally self-imposed, not physiologically imposed. Your body is an incredible machine capable of incredible things. ...
Wow! I just realized that on the 9th of January, I will celebrate my 2nd Spark-iversary! It seems like only yesterday that I found this site and decided to start the journey that has taken me beyond what I had thought were my personal limits. I have learned a lot about myself in these last two years, and perhaps the most important thing that I have learned is that limits are generally self-imposed, not physiologically imposed. Your body is an incredible machine capable of incredible things. You have to realize that it is capable of doing many things, and will only stop when the mind tells it too, not because it is physically unable to achieve. If you tell your body what you want and expect it to do, it will strive to achieve. It will not stop until your mind tells it too. If you believe all of the limiting talk that is out there..."you're too old to do..." or "Women shouldn't do...", or "It's a metabolism thing, it's out of your control..." or "You simply can't loose the weight without surgery or a special diet..." You will NEVER reach your full potential. If, however, you believe in yourself and the strength, power and beauty that lies within you, and make a conscious decision to not let ANYTHING get in your way, YOU WILL SUCCEED!! You WILL achieve the body of your dreams...You WILL achieve HEALTH...You will achieve HAPPINESS. THE POWER IS WITHIN YOU! CHOOSE TO GO AFTER IT! CHOOSE TO GRASP IT WITH BOTH HANDS, SET IT IN MOTION, AND NEVER GIVE UP!!!! QUOTES: Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it."Lou Holtz Whether you think you can or you think you can't, you're right. Dead Last Finish is greater than Did Not Finish which greatly trumps Did Not Start." Obsessed is a word the lazy use to describe the dedicated! You need to figure out what's eating you..before you work on what your eating.. Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels! "If hunger is not the problem then eating is not the solution." My Mantra: GO HARD OR GO HOME!!!!

It's very hard in the beginning to understand that the whole idea is not to beat the other runners. Eventually you learn that the competition is against the little voice inside you that wants you to quit." -George Sheehan
