I am 71 year old Type 2 Diabetic female trying to get my weight under control in order to better control my sugar. It has been a struggle until I started with Sparkpeople. I like tracking all foods and seeing actual calories, etc. This is really helping me.

My daughter got me a Fit bit Zip so I can track my steps and it is connected to SparkPeople. It adds information to the " My Fitness" part of SP. This way I have all my exercise information (number of steps, etc.) In 1 program.

    Thanks for reading and commenting on my "Overcoming Obstacles" blog. I know what you are going through with lack of motivation. I went through physical therapy for several months after I tore the abductor muscle in my leg last December. It can be hard to get your motivation back once you lose it.

    Do you have pictures of yourself before you lost weight and after you lost 60 lbs? Find a picture of yourself that you don't like from before or close to before and take a picture of yourself now. That will help, at least some, to get your motivation back. emoticon emoticon emoticon

    Thanks for reading and commenting on my goals blog. I'm paying close attention that my weight doesn't get above my range so paying attention to my goals as well.
