Introduction Text Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson I am here to support all of my wonderful Sparkly friends in this journey. ♥Love you all!♥ Throughout the past few years of working towards getting healthier, I have learned that I don't have control over many things in this life, but I can make decisions that will greatly effect the outcomes of the goals that I have set for myself! I am tired of making poor decisions! I know I CAN do this~You CAN too!

I also know that it does NOT have to be torture and NOTHING is off limits! I hope that you are encouraged by what you read here and I am always looking for new supportive spark buddies! ♥ Hi, I'm Kelly. I am 33 and married with three children. I have been working on my weight for about 5 years. I have cried, screamed, and begged God to get me skinny! But I know that it takes a lot more than just whining about it. I have lost and gained so much through this journey-- and I am not just talking about weight! I know that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me! This is the ONLY way! I cannot do it on my own!! If you would like to read a more detailed post about my weight loss journey, please read my original intro blog post. Thanks for stopping by, and may God strengthen you also!! **************************************** This is where it all began: Feb. 2006--298lbs+?? 08-30-06--248 10-30-07--179 11-05-08--215 11-19-08--207 11-26-08--204 12-03-08--201 12-10-08--200 12-17-08--200 12-24-08--200 12-31-08--199 01-07-09-199 01-14-09--200 01-21-09--199 01-28-09--199 05-08-09--189 09-28-09--185 10-15-09--182 01-12-10--210 02-23-10--196 03-26-10--189
