Hi everyone, I'm joining your team starting in May.
My name is Julie. I'm 34 years old and a SAHM to two toddlers. I am hoping to lose about 30 lbs and get in better shape.
I'm excited to be a part of your team and work with everyone as we meet our goals!5 -

Just finished the garden work for now. I still need to tidy up a bit around the lavender, but I don't have any tree bark left. Maybe I will get some more with my dad next week so I can finish that little bit. Quite happy with the rest of it though, but it was exhausting.

Hi all. I was told to introduce myself here. A little about me: I'm a Washington, DC resident (hence my nickname DCRESIDER) and a recent early retiree at 53 as of January of this year. While I've been enjoying my downtime, it seems menopause and the sedentary lifestyle has affected my weight so it's time to reboot. I've gained about 15 lbs. the last couple of years and as a petite gal, every pound over shows on my body. I can't wait for this challenge and this group accountability.
Current exercise: 2-3x a week HITT exercises but not consistent with my workouts, so would like to do more. I used to run and strength train too, and would like to start that up again as a May challenge.
Diet: I'm a foodie and I like my wine but have recently limited my alcohol intake, increased water, and increased by protein intake, and started to track my macros.
Today: I have a 25 minute HITT workout scheduled, then I may have a short run.6 -
Welcome @dcresider! Congratulations on your retirement! I live nearby in Alexandria, VA and spend a lot of time in DC for work. It’s always great to have new members!3

hi everyone! i'm Val and i've been on mfp for many many years on and off but never seen a fun group initiative like this. i'm super excited to join and see how things go!
about me - i'm on the west coast of canada and work full-time in marketing/communications. 100% remote which means stretchy pants and proximity to my kitchen hasn't done me any favours - hence the return to mfp!
i'm a super slow runner but i love running and indoor cycling, lets be honest - it's an opportunity to shop for cute gear! i also love coffee and can't get enough.
some food habits i'm working on - 1. tracking each day (my diary is open and i'd love more friends with open diaries, for inspo never judgey) 2. break my sweet food addiction. i say sweet not sugar because i've tried the zero cal/stevia foods etc.. and it doesn't work for me 3. stop eating at 730pm

Hi @PatriceFitnessPal - Thanks for the welcome. I'm glad there's someone near me.3

@ganival, send me a fr. I do the open diary as well, and use my diary to help me meal plan and prep.
Spring rains today yall. Tenderness in the joints. Or as I've always heard, rain bones predicted.3 -
@pupowl LOVE today's card and your garden/yard looks amazing! I love the metal art on the fence...gorgeous!
Hope everyone had a great Friday Eve today! My day was too busy, but productive. Pushed myself on walking today, but garmin defaults to running when I speed walk on the treadmill...trust me...it's always walking.
No choice but to eat out today, but I did ok on choices and calories...
Tomorrow is Friday...WHEW!!! Can't wait for the weekend to begin!!
