C25K | Thyroiditis | GW: 140lbs | 28yo Looking for friends!

I live in Japan, so I don't get a chance to meet many people who speak my language (literally). I have to do this journey by myself over here, so I'm hoping to reach out to those on MFP and build a support group. :) I plan to log in every day.

I am 28 years old, not married, with a girlfriend who does martial arts (kendo, kyudo) for her exercise. I can't get into them myself (don't have the time), so I'm doing C25K instead. I work 6 days a week as a kindergarten teacher, but am hoping to get two days off a week starting next year, so I will have more time to see to my own health.

I was also diagnosed with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis this year. I'm on medication and it is under control, but it has been a huge relief to know that my diet fails in the past weren't entirely my fault.

In any case, it's nice to meet you all! i hope you'll send me a friend request, or respond below and I'll add you! I don't care about race/gender/sexuality (I'm a lesbian, so I hope you don't either)/weight to lose... I'm just looking for like-minded people who are trying to get their weight under control so they can enjoy life to the fullest!
