Introduction Text Update 2/22/2012: To begin I must say that Spark is wonderful. From Jan 2011 to June 2011 I lost over 71 pounds. Then mid-June I found out I was expecting, due to pregnancy issues I was not able to keep up my routine so some weight has come back. I had my wonderful baby girl 2 weeks ago and I am looking forward to exceedingjavascript:%20void(0); my previous accomplishments. I sincerely thank all my SparkBuddies for checking in on me when I was not active. I am so ready to get things back on track�.I never knew one could crave working out so much, LOL. To all the newcomers please know that YOU CAN DO IT!!!!! If you fall down dust yourself off and get right back up and go for it again. I am looking forward to a wonderful, healthy fit and active 2012. :-) I am a mother, wife, full-time graduate student and I have a full-time career.
