The nick name I chose is Solange because in highschool French that was the name assigned to me. I don't speak French or read it or understand it, but when I took that class my Mother cheered me on and she often called me by my French name Solange. Proud of my trying my best and applying myself. Today, years later she is still one of my best cheerleaders and is proud of me taking care of myself through exercise and nutrition. She often compliments me on my improving shape. She is 83 and is very active in aerobics at a gym and with walking. In the winter she is a mall walker and I purchased some workout DVD's for her for Christmas.
