I am 47 years old I enjoy being married I have 4 great kids. I enjoy decorating my home & collecting elephants. I have a full time job, I enjoy country music & enjoy dancing. The reason for this is for me to lose weight. I am ready for the 17 day challenge. I have a heart condition since 2006 I weight more than I ever have 182 lbs at 5'2 that is way to much. I never had a weight issue until I had my kids. Well the youngest is 22 I guess I can't use that excuse any more.
