WELCOME to the Lake County Losers

I really liked Debbie's post so I made this our introduce yourself Sticky!.

My name is Michael I'm 42 and have been a member of SP for a longtime not an active member mind you. This year I am going to try and do things different. Last year I got my finances in order this year the same focus is being put into me.

I was accepted to the News Herald Lighten up in 2011 contest so thats a little extra motivation for me. Any help and motivation will be welcome.

I work at progressive and Breckenridge village and LOVE my jobs. I have a wife 4 grown kids and 2 dogs and a grandson on the way. anything else you wanna know I'm glad to share, hopefully while walking, running, or excercising. lol

Frist let me welcome you to Lake County Losers!

Join right in and have fun!

A few things that might help you on your way to a healthier you!


3 steps to success

Be honest with yourself. My best lesson is to track your food intake, track your fitness, and be HONEST about both—that means every small bite matters, no matter how small. Don't be afraid of logging the big ones either.


Be accountable. Find a SparkTeam that will help you with your goals. Keep in close touch with the SparkPeople community for motivation and encouragement. These people will be your lifelines when you need support.


Surround yourself with positive influences. This goes hand in hand with being accountable. Make sure your lifelines are positive and supportive. Negative people will only drag you down.

My motto is this: One bite at a time, One step at a time, One day at a time. If I CAN do this, so can YOU! I BELIEVE in you! Go out there and make your future!

Hugs Debbie
