    Name: angie
    Age of kids: I have an almost 14 yr old son and just adopted a 3 yr old daughter (she really keeps me on my toes)
    State: Kentucky
    Goal: My first goal is to lose 10 lbs by my son's birthday in march. Then it will be an additional 15 lbs by summer then the last 25 by Christmas.
    Motivation: obviously my kids are a big motivator. I want to be active and healthy for them. My son is a band kid and I want to be able to climb the stairs at the football games without being so winded. I want to be able to keep up with my daughter who is always on the move. I also just want to be healthy and not buy bigger jeans.
