Hi guys! :)

My name is Gigi and I'm new to MFP. I moved to the city about a year ago and gained 20lbs because I didn't move enough, drank too much beer and work at a desk job. I didn't realize how quickly I was gaining until I realized my clothes were way tooo tight! I'm a recent grad swimming in college debt so buying a whole new wardrobe is out of the question. Hope everyone has an amazing weight loss journey and hope to make some friends looking to lose weight like me!

Cheers!
