I am on my journey to great health, one SparkPoint and one pound at a time!
I am starting back on my SparkPeople journey and this time I vow to myself that I will succeed. Its serious business now and I can't play around anymore. I have been placed on high blood pressure AND high cholesterol medications. I have never had to be concerned with my health and losing weight was for the sole purpose of me wanting to look good in my clothes. Its time to grow up and do it for the right reasons and that is great health.
