Healthy Example: My Dad

Since this man:

January 17, 2010

would rather not swim to work in this man's clothes:

July 2008

July 2009

I spent the weekend posting Big and Tall men's clothing to Ebay so my dad can replenish his wardrobe!

My dad spent most of last year learning how to eat healthy and start moving/exercising again. The result, so far, is a loss of over 100 lbs. His grandchildren appreciate a healthier version of PaPaw, and I am motivated to at least move half as much as my dad who is walking about an hour a day!

Sparkpeople.com is what finally helped motivate and educate my dad to make some significant changes in his lifestyle. Currently my dad is participating in “Spread The Spark" through The Spark Free Chapter Challenge. Please help me support him! All you need to do is download a FREE chapter of "The Spark" book. He will then get an additional chance to win a $500 weekend getaway and other prizes, as well as something they offer called "SparkPoints," which helps motivate him to reach his goals. Plus, you might find some encouraging information yourself. Just go here and click the button to download your free chapter.
