Hi, folks!

My name is Erika, and I'm new to MFP. I actually started working out sometime in late September, but progress has been pretty slow, for a variety of reasons, but I'm finally back on track (at least I hadn't gained any weight back, I just wasn't losing it for about a month or two).

I started out at 289 lbs. I'm currently 271 and some change, with a goal of 170 lbs in mind (I'm 5' 11").

    Hi Erika :)

    Well done for staying on point :) I've tried this once before but lost focus. Am back again, with a new approach!

    I'm 23, a student in a double degree and a respite nurse! I'm looking for people to talk to, be accountable to and in turn support them however they need. Maybe we can help each other out :)

    That's pretty cool. I was actually considering becoming a respiratory therapist at one point. Then chemistry made me re-evaluate my entire life. I'm so terrible, it's not even funny.

    And I'd like that. :) If nothing else, I can be an e-cheerleader for you. xD
