    That's great! Way to go! I love the advice you gave too - that it's important for women to do something for themselves (and their health)!

    I love your story! What a great role model you are for your son, and what an awesome way to build your relationship with him. Brought tears to my eyes as I'm struggling to help my 11 year old daughter with her body image and realize the importance of being healthy! I wish I could get her to work out with me!

    Thank you for sharing!

    you are welcome, it is so hard to raise children and be a good role model when we are not ourselves. That was my problem. I am so proud of all of my sons, not just JAke, but my two older sons also have lost alot of weight, One lost 55 pounds this year, just so he could serve his Country. He leaves for Basic Training for the Army this Sunday. My oldest son lost over 70 pounds as well. I have been honored to be able to be a good role model to them all

    Good luck :flowerforyou:
