New here.

Hi All!

I'm new here so I wanted to introduce myself. I'm Michele, mother of two incredible young adults, and wife to the most awesome husband ever, though I may be biased! My daughter just turned 20 and my son is 16. My husband and I have been married since 1992, and we've planned an incredible trip to celebrate our 20th anniversary.

You may be looking at your calendar wondering how I come up with that number Yes we've been married for 21 years this year, but our plans for the awesome 20th anniversary trip to Europe came to a screeching halt when we had a house fire. First things first, I suppose...

Anyway! We're going to Paris for 3 days, Romania for 26 days, then Dordrecht, The Netherlands for 5 days. We, of course, have really buckled down and started watching our weight and fitness level more carefully. We've both gotten a great start, and have lost inches as well as pounds. Of course we're feeling better as well, so that's always a good thing!

I'd love to connect with some of you and share this weight loss journey. My goal is to hike Mt. Bucegi when we visit Romania. There are several places to hike there and we love mountains, so we're super excited!

Best to all,

Michele
