So far, I find following the Spark programme set for me works as long as I stick to it.
Stick within my nutritional limits.
Do the recommended cardiovascular and strength exercises.
Be kind to myself, and be consistent.
I started running with Sparkpeople and began to enjoy it, but my knee and hip complained to I'll have to do something less painful. Swimming is the obvious one, but it is a it like a busman's holiday.
Personal Information:

Until recently I lived in a big old house and hosted foreign language students but we recently moved to a smaller house and I just live with my youngest daughter unless my older one is home from uni resting on the sofa.
I have four children. My oldest is a teacher and lives in Londonwith his girlfriend.
My second son and his girlfriend live in Oxtead near London.
My 22-year-old daughter is at university and my 15-year-oldis coming up to her GCSE's this year.

I know I need to find more time for myself. I always tend to work too much and play too little.
