I'm back on the Spark Wagon....For the past two years, I've not been consistent with eating habits or exercising. I had sprained my ankle, which prohibited me from exercising for about 6 to 8 months. I was finally able to walk regularly & was doing fine until I decided I wanted to jog again. I started to incorporate jogging slowly, but apparently not slow enough, as I tore numerous tendons in my foot. Ugh!!! Weight loss just isn't happening for me.

I have been obese since I was 5 years old. I'm to the point of total frustration which is why I applied for and thankfully got accepted into the Gastric Bypass program. I'm now on my second month of healthy eating & exercising, for insurance purposes & program instructions, to prove I can stick to a healthy eating plan. I meet the surgeon on December 9th to hopefully get things rolling along.
My hope with this tool is that I will finally lose the weight and keep it off. I know this isn't going to be easy, but I just can't seem to get to a healthy weight on my own. For once in my life, I'd just like to feel healthy, buy normal clothes, and have more energy. I'm totally ready to do this!!!
