Alihikes getting fit and having fun


REALLY excited about Spark and my Spark teams. I'm in my late 60s and retired. Working out and eating healthy are challenges for me sometimes. I LOVE hiking, camping, cross country skiing, snow shoes, and kayaking.. I want to get more fit to enjoy these activities with my friends, and to have more energy to enjoy my retirement!

REALLY excited about Spark and my Spark teams. I'm in my late 60s and retired. Working out and eating healthy are challenges for me sometimes. I LOVE hiking, camping, cross country skiing, snow shoes, and kayaking.. I want to get more fit to enjoy these activities with my friends, and to have more energy to enjoy my retirement! For 2019, I want to continue to lose weight, build strength and increase fitness, and make new friends and have adventures. I also want to reduce my cholesterol level, and reduce blood sugar. I am using a fitness tracker and step goals for 2019, and I am logging my food in a journal. I follow the NoS eating plan.But I am also finding a lot of support and good tools through WeightWatchers.

    Thank you for the turkey goodie pray you had a lovely day. We had Mom,my brother & our friend Carol for our holiday dinner.
    I see my spine Doctor again today. Took me 2 days to prepare the dinner as I could only do so much each day.I have to have something done I cannot even walk a block without pain & burning.
    I have to try & be Thankful that is all I have wrong it could always be worse, my friend her friend has a disease she cannot even roll over in bed scratch her nose, or do anything for herself 24 hour care. She even has a Masters degree but no one will hire her. very intelligent. She even wrote a childrens book.So when I feel sappy I think of her . Have a lovely weekend

    I wobbled so much I gave up. That’s when two total strangers helped out. We stood in a circle and held on to neighbors as needed. They were very kind.

    Looking to stay focused through the upcoming Holiday Season? Want to get connected with a Team to support you through your Journey to a Healthier Lifestyle? If yes, then consider joining the Biggest Loser Challenge that starts in early December. Each week 10 teams of 24 Active members do fun nutritional and fitness challenges. The challenges promote a healthy lifestyle. If for some reason you cannot do a challenge, it can be modified to meet your needs. I hope that you decide this might be for you. If so, you can leave your name on the Wait List for the Winter challenge. To get to the List visit my page and click on the “BLUE BIGGEST LOSER” Icon; copy The Team Page Address below or let me know so I can send you an invitation. Join the Team then sign up on the waitlist. It’s the thread right below the Chit Chat thread.
    If searching through Spark enter Biggest Loser Winter Challenge All Teams.
