Jul 2013: Committing to getting active on Sparkpeople again.
Mar 2011 Update: I've made peace with the scale. It is not my friend and I have accepted that. :-) I've been able to make peace with it because I feel healthy and strong, and proud of what my body can do. I am living a much more active life, and have more energy every day. I am proud that I have completed several triathlons and thankful to have such a fun hobby.

Jun 2010 Update: It's taken a year and a half to lose 15 pounds. When I started this journey, I expected to be at 25 pounds or more by now. Although the number on the scale can be frustrating, I feel so strong and healthy that it makes up for it. I actually look forward to my next workout instead of dreading it. If I go 3 days without exercise, my body starts craving it, even aching for it! I feel great! I completed a sprint Triathlon on Jun 25, 2010!!
(Jul 09) I read about spark people on one of the features of the Joy Fit Club. Hoping this will be the tool I need to make a difference in my weight loss. After starting my exercise program and making diet changes in Jan, I only have 10 pounds to show for it and have plateaued. I am hoping this will give me the boost I have been needing!
