Editor's Note: EMMABE1 has lost 143 pounds and counting with SparkPeople. Ann, who is from Australia, recently answered ~INDYGIRL's questions via email.
 
~INDYGIRL: What was your a-ha moment when you decided to finally lose the weight?
 
EMMABE1: As far as one single a-ha moment – I really didn’t have one! It sort of snuck up on me.  There was a huge media blitz on "healthy living" and this maybe had some effect. I was also having problems with osteoarthritis in my knees and ankles, so my doctor was talking "knee replacement."  The risks were too high at that weight; however I knew that one day the time would come.  With weight loss, healthy eating and exercise, I have managed to stop all pain in my knees and at this time, replacement is definitely "off" indefinitely!

~INDYGIRL: How much weight have you lost?
 
EMMABE1: 65 kg (143 lb approx.) I had lost 35 kg (77 lb approx.) in the 7 yrs before joining SparkPeople, but was just "fiddling about" reducing the amount of food and calories I was eating, but not changing my lifestyle.  Consequently I was still wearing the same size clothes despite the weight loss, and because of this I was totally fed up with what I viewed as yet another failed attempt.

Running or walking a 5K is a great fitness goal. It's an achievable distance, yet gives you a real feeling of accomplishment! While it does take a few weeks of training to complete that 3.1 mile distance, signing up for a race can keep you motivated and on track with your workout plan, whether you're a novice or seasoned runner.
 
I'm super excited to announce SparkPeople's official Trick or Treat Trot, a virtual 5K race (you can walk or run) open to anyone. You could win some AWESOME prizes (new workout shoes, my upcoming DVD, SparkPeople's new cookbook and more) just by participating, and best of all, it's free! You select your route and simply run the distance the week of October 30. Here's how you can sign up and get access to your free training plan, too! Read More >
