 Woah it has been a while but I have not stopped being concerned for my health and for others. I still watch what I eat and encourage others to do the same. Then I need to get more active. Since last summer, it has not been the best. Walking more has been my current goal. How about you? This is a photo of me and my girls.

I know many want to lose weight fast and all but for my this is best, I have had a lost EVERY month (but one, and it was a 1 lb gain). I am determined to keep going until it's time to do weights and serious cardio! Woowoo! The season WILL come because I have 'will' for it! :) Be encouraged! PS: baby was breastfed for 15 months!
