I am a stay at home mom, but I am very active. I keep busy with the kids activities, social events, book clubs, BSF, and friends. I used to be an avid exerciser, but an injury has prevented me from resuming exercising the way that I did. I lost a very close family member and gained weight between the change in activity as well as the mourning accompanied with the loss. I am ready to take my life back! I am very upbeat and I hope to keep this positive attitude throughout this challenge.
