I lost my mother last year and instead of using her death as a REASON to get healthy, I used it as an excuse to gain over 50 lbs! I am now trying to get my life back on track and make better choices! I have 3 very active children and am always running them from one practice to the next. No More excuses for me, I WILL find time to get at least 30 minutes of activity in a day!

    Hi, I can relate to what your going through......I lost my mum when I was 17 to Lung Cancer, and so I started smoking, telling myself that it was good enough for my mum, so it's good enough for me! Silly I know! The smoking only lasted 1 yr before I quit. I think we all crave things to try to fill the emptiness we feel.
    The fact that your on here is a step in the right direction, and I wish you well with your goals.
