One small step at a time!
Hi everyone! My name is Stacey. I am new here as of Jan 2013. I will not call it a "Resolution". I will just say that I am more ready, willing, and able than ever before!

I have tried to lose weight many times in the past decade but never "stuck" with it. I have definitely put the needs of my family before mine but am ready to put myself first this time. That will be a challenge which is why I love how Spark helps you make small lifestyle changes by focusing on short term goals. I am truly optimistic & the hope I feel brings tears to my eyes. I am tired of being unhappy with my body! Thank you!
