2nd Time Around

Hello! My name is Lesley and this is my 2nd go at using MFP. I used it under the screen name MacSkillz in 2012-2013 and was able to lose 70 lbs. Since then a lot has happened and I gained back 40 lbs of what I originally lost.

I am currently going through a divorce so what better time than now to start returning the focus onto myself and my health. I goal is to get down to 160/150 (based on how I feel and look) by lifting heavy and doing cardio a few times a week. I've got a few great people for support, but could always use more.
Some more facts about me:
* I do have a foul mouth. I may be a lady, but I swear like a sailor... you've been warned. :wink:
* I have several tattoos.
* I am battling with Binge-Eating Disorder.
* I use Advocare supplements and also utilize Beachbody home programs so you will see those pop up often in my diary.
* I am very big on picture documenting my progress and posting when I have Non-Scale Victories (NSV).
* I am very active when it comes to commenting and trying to encouraging others.


With that, I look forward to some new friends and helping others reach their goals!! :smile:

-Lesley

    Hey Lesley! I lost quite a bit before too, but it has since come back as well. You're definitely not alone in that. Just wanted to say Good Luck girlfriend!! :smile:
