I have been co-leader and am now leader April 1 for the first time and am really nervous. I have no idea how it works behind the scenes but our former leader is now co-leader and promises to be there for me.

Wonderful ideas. It's always fun to win no matter what it is. I especially like the ribbons one of our members chochets each month the the best loser of the month. I have collected 6 over the 3 years I have been there. With "my fitness pal" and my doctor's help, I am finally having success and eating like my family. It…

I am on my feet most of the day for my job. I have a classroom full of one year old toddlers. It is a high pace demanding job and I love it. I track 5-8 miles a day there. I also enjoy doing exercise dvd's, especially pilates and dance videos.
