Introduction Text "forget the past, for it is gone from your domain! forget the future, for it is beyond your reach! control the present! Live supremely well now! This is the way of the wise..." ― Paramahansa Yogananda -------- I maintained ~130 lbs for over two years with the help of sparkpeople before. I've been in the 190's to 200 lbs for years now, after having gained it all back due to my loss of interest and motivation after a diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder in 2012. I'm so grateful to have discovered the tracking app! Since I now have a full time job, the app will make it easier to track on the go, as I go. I'm so excited, finally, about taking this new journey into an even better than before me! Namaste.

~I'm *not* "naturally" flexible--but I'm a yogic artist. ~I lost 70lbs by gradually making changes I *wanted* to make in my lifestyle (and I'll lose it again the same way). ~I embrace my darkness with my ever new blissful LIGHT. ~I'm proud to be a Yogini-Buddhist-Hindu-Christian-mystery-di ving-Sponge-for -Truth (in case there is ever any confusion about that). ~I enjoy beading and jewelry making. ~The surfacing of schizoaffective disorder when I was 30 depressed me into gaining all my weight back--but none of that will stop me. ~I heart kombucha, yoga, hugs, and fire.
