    I've been on/off this site over the last few months. I start, then I stop. I haven't been real motivated, but I am now. I am so miserable in my clothes, uncomfortable and don't feel like my hot self. : ) I have read the New Rules of Lifting for Women and will be following that program. I don't know that I'll hit my goal weight with trying to build muscle and trying to determine the right amount of macronutrients, etc but I'm going to give it a go. I could use the motivation and support. It would be nice to not feel alone as I go through this life changer.
