My name is Brooke. I'll be 30 years old on January, 22nd 2011. I gave birth to my first child, a daughter on December 21st, 2010. Her name is Elliana Jolee and she is beautiful and healthy! I completed a BA in Kinesiology with an emphasis in weight management and adolescent health. I've received several fitness certifications including personal training and aerobic kickboxing and have worked in the field for 5 years. I was an obese child and teenager and lost 90 lbs before getting pregnant. Now, Im a program director for a weight management, obesity intervention project for youth. My biggest struggles are learning how to cook and resisting sweets, fast food and junk food! I'm currently seeking a certification in Non-Profit Mangement and hope to have my own grant funded program for youth wellness within the next year. I've never done a blog, posted or anything at all like this. Hoping to get some support and give some as well.
