    My name is Karen and I live in Kansas. I love to eat, so all food is my vice. I am holding myself back from being in top shape. I don't like to exercise, so I don't have a favorite. I am currently doing the Insanity workout and that will be the last new one I try this year (if you've done it you know why). I carry my weight well, but after 4 kids who wouldn't like a trimmer belly. I love my boobs and would be devastated if I lost them. My goal for this year and the rest of my life is to get more exercise so I can do the things I enjoy, like eating.
