Hi, I am a 41 year old mom of an active 13 year old son. My husband isn't active outside of work but his work helps him to burn calories and maintain a body that fits him. Me, I sit at a desk most of the day. I work in student services in a military charter school. While others are outside staying in shape it is not an easy task for me to do as my position requires that I stay indoors and support the academy. My son and a friend at work have helped me to become more active and I love them for that. I want to be thin, heaalthy and active again. I know my weight is the reason for many of my aches and pains so my goal is to overcome the weight problem and live a life filled with activity. Motivation is the main thing I need and my son is great at motivating me.
