I saw this on CNN today, and as a parent trying very hard to restructure my entire lifestyle to prevent this from happening to me and my children, I found it especially compelling...

Raven,

I have read a similar report recently. It is very scary isnt it.....

By the way where are you located in Atlanta? I live in Covington which is East of Atlanta. You and I look like we have very common goals....

Hey Angel

East... North or South? I'm up in Cherokee County, NorthWest. And yes, it looks like we do!

Just straight east.... out I-20....

What type of program are you following?

I'm a calorie counter. I do the 1200-1400 calories a day, I use fitday.com to track my intake and watch my carbs, proteins, fats, etc. I lift weights 4 times a week, do pilates, and I'm trying to work in more cardio stuff. How about you?
