Bevat60

Hi!
I am new here and I am a grandma raising 2 young girls wanting to make a good example for them. I home school them and want to teach them good eating habits and exercise habits. I would enjoy talking to anyone with some encouraging advice. I have tried everything. I am 58 and most of my life I have been an avid exerciser. I have been an aerobic instructor and personal trainer but the last 10 years my health has been spiraling because of the loss of a son in car accident. I have finally gotten my mind around that loss and want to live better. I presently have an elliptical that I get on for at least a mile or two a day and walk with a friend for an hour a few times a week. I would like to add some strength training and just be a good role model for these girls age 11 and 9 years old. They are precious and enjoy outdoors and all the healthy things of life so far. I want to be my fittest at 60 so if you have ideas send them my way! Happy New Year to you all!
