Welcome to my page -read on-I hope I will inspire you to continue with your healthy journey..

Hello and welcome to my page...my name is Joanne -everyone here calls me Jo.
This is my story-

After reading a few other home pages I decided to add a little to mine.
I live in London Ontario Canada.
I am 58 years old now. If you ask my sis Mary she'd say I was older LOL!!!- not. I am only 5'1" -very short ..
Mary got me into Sparks ...

Mary got me into Sparks and I love every minute of it.-the help the advice the support!!

This is the Year- just have to get there one lb. at a time!!

It is 2013 now and I have passed my 5th year anniversary and going for year 6 soon enough....so thought I should update my page. I have not made it to goal yet. I was real close then what happened? This will have to be a blog...lol because I can not put my finger on the why.
I feel the best way to explain is I was maintaining and stopped weighing myself each week. then started slacking off on counting calories --they were all over the chart I'm sure...and less exercising with lack of enthusiasim.. for it all ---got myself so involved with family and becoming a 2nd time grandmother I forgot about me! NO MORE!

I've not given up - as a matter of fact I have re-commited to doing it- till the end in 2013! I will work my program- eating healthy...healthy snacks and all- my 8 glasses of water and more then 30 minutes of exercise everyday with strength training thrown in to keep me toned.
If I lose 1 lb. at a time again so be it.
My last statement said one pound at a time..that's what I have done before so will do it again with no problem.

It is now March 17th of 2013-- still doing it --Working the program and trusting the process-- I am not losing a pound a week like I wanted to but still not gaining ---all is good!


woohoo!

If you have any advice or pep talk for me please leave a comment..don't forget to check out my photo gallery..

Love to all who pass through this page.
Jo- Remember be all that you can be - Put you first!

I love your "Diva 2010" picture! Thank you for taking the time to read and comment on my blog "Where It All Started". I just read your Other Information where you listed Rheumatoid Arthritis and Fibromyalgia as challenges in your life yet you don't them stop you. GOOD FOR YOU!!! I have friends with those conditions so I know it's not easy what you do. What an inspiration you are to so many people. Keep it up, sweetie! Enjoy your weekend!
