I've been here for awhile on and off, and hoping making friends will make me stick with it. :) About me: As of last week, I'm 219 lbs, 27 years old, and approximately 5'2"-5'3"? (I'm guessing.) Trying to track with MFP and managing to wear a Misfit Shine regularly, so I guess that's something.

I am in bad shape, and I know it. I have congenital hypotonia from fetal alcohol syndrome (gee, thanks biological parents) that was treated with physical and occupational therapy through elementary school, and then I switched schools from public to private and that stopped. I want to get stronger and build muscle tone as well as lose weight, but I don't know if that's possible.

I'm also an untreated Type II diabetic, due to not having money or a decent doctor for the past two years. Since I have insurance now, I'm hoping that will change.

All that aside, I am an unabashed geek girl with a love of history, comics, arts and crafts, video games, chainmail, and spend far too much of my free time playing Magic: the Gathering with my best friends.
