2009 is the start of a new me! My family and I just moved from St. Louis to Waterloo last year. With the move, came a lot of stress and weight gain from staying at home. It is so easy to nibble and snack when you are not working. Not only do I want to lose weight and get fit for me, but I want to set good examples for my daughters who are 3 and 13. The 13 year old also gained a lot of weight during this move. So I am interested in any ideas to "gently" get her off the couch and into exercise.
