Need a Little Motivational “Spark”?

Keeping this blog and website certainly helps motivate me to not stray too far off my diet.  Still, there are days where it’s not enough.  There are days where I need a little extra help to keep on eating healthy.

Sometimes I get frustrated because my sciatica keeps me from doing any kind of cardio.  On a bad day, I can’t walk at all without pain.  On a good day I can walk a mile…if I do it slowly and carefully, and on a level ground.  Most days are somewhere between the two.  Because of this, my weight loss is pretty well slowed down.

Anyway, the point of all this is that a friend of mine, Lynn, told me about a website that is motivational, and helps you track your weight loss and fitness goals.  It’s for you if you just want to maintain your weight…and if you want to lose 100 or more pounds.

I’ve already been inspired by a lady named Annie, who has lost almost 400 pounds!  I’ll be doing an interview with her soon, and will let you know when it’s ready.

So what’s this place?  Called SparkPeople, it’s free.  If you want to take a look, here’s my profile page as an example.

If you decide to join, let me know so I can add you to my friends list!
