Introduction Text This is not the first time I joined SparkPeople. I originally started several years ago, when I weighed 223 lbs. I got down to around 200 lbs. and have hovered around there since. On Tuesday, May 14, 2013, I weighed in at 204 lbs., and I recommitted myself to SparkPeople that very day. This time, I am forcing myself to take it slow, one baby step at a time, because I tend to go all in and burn myself out fairly quickly. I have an impressive amount of cardio stamina for someone who weighs over 200 lbs., but I have learned that jumping right into an hour a day, 5 days a week just isn't the way to go.
