    These two right here! Because I want to be the most awesome gramma ever. I take them running, bicycling, hiking, paddleboarding, river rafting, horseback riding, ice skating, quadding....they are both active and love to be outdoors having fun. The boy makes me race him home from school every day. I couldn't do those things 100 pounds ago.

    Reason #45 To change the cycle in my family from being obese to allowing my children to see that there is more to life then food and that eating is not a way out of feeling things or a way to comfort our sad feelings. That food is there only for fuel to our body not for pleasure.
