Introduction Text Welcome to my SparkPage! I've come to the hard-won conclusion that I'm never gonna do this lifestyle perfectly. I have my ups and my downs...but the bottom line is that I have both the knowledge and the will power to do whatever it takes to keep myself healthy...no matter what!

Heal from my illness. Walk 15 minutes a day at an easy pace, defined as being able to talk and walk at the same time (per doctor's orders).

"Once you've developed healthy habits, it feels just as good not to overeat as it used to feel to do it." ~~Lisa Dorfman, R.D., sports nutritionist at the University of Miami, in Mind, Body + Spirit Fitness Magazine, March 2007 issue "Fear is a learned response. With fear, you decide without trying that your failure is predetermined, and you no longer give yourself the opportunity to succeed. " ~~ Jeremy Likness at www.bodybuilding.com
