I have always been active and find myself a couch potato with little energy. I have three grandchildren and a fourth on the way and I have to get control of my eating and exercise so that I am the grandmother who does fun things with the grandchildren, not the one who sits there and watches them...not there yet, but headed that way if I don't get it under control soon. I know that my job (middle school in the "hood") is a major factor for stress.
I love the outdoors whether it is shooting sports and hunting, swimming, riding on the back of the Harley, or sitting on the patio with a glass of wine reading my Kindle after a day of work. I am always up for an adventure, and I have let my weight get in the way of that this past year.
