Introduction Text SparkPeople helped me once, and can help me again if I let it. That's my hope anyway. 10 years ago (OMG how has it been that long?????) I lost almost 60 lbs with the help of SP. I felt great, and swore I'd maintain. Then life, and stress, and everything else that I use as an excuse just got in the way. So here I am 10 years later, at a weight I never thought I'd see again. I'm the only one who can do it, but a little help sure never hurts! Leap Day 2020 seems like a fitting time to reboot.

Get back to making smart and healthy choices. Make connections to help me in this journey.

Stop eating fast food. Plan what I eat. Exercise at least a little bit every day.

I moved to the D.C. area in Feb 2016 after a little over a year in Houston. I had a good group of friends there that I walked with regularly, and who helped keep me motivated. I've been in Maryland 4 years now and still don't have anything similar.

I'm an animal lover who due to the sad fact that animals don't live as long as they should is now no pet household. I lost my last dog Peanut suddenly 2 years ago now, and while I really miss having animals around, I have to say it makes life a lot easier. Especially with my job, because I travel a lot.
