I'm a 54 year old man that loves his family. I have been married for 31 years and I have three kids. My oldest son is 30, my daughter is 27, and my youngest son is 24. They are my main support. I had to retire from teaching about four years ago due to a health issue but I started a second career as a full time musician. I'm the bassist and a vocalist in The Holiday Band(holidayband.com). We perform some 175 dates a year. I also work part-time as a TV Host at a local TV station. I have always struggled with my weight but I want to get it under control so I do not develop diabetes etc. So far I'm fairly healthy but I know losing the weight will help me in the long run.
