edited September 2024 in Introduce Yourself
I joined myfitnesspal about 2 weeks ago, so I figured it was finally time to introduce myself. I started my fitness journey on Feb. 22, 2010 with my husband of 10-1/2 years. We both decided it was time to get healthy and stay that way. We are currently training for our first marathon in October. I have 2 dogs and a cat. No children yet, as I wanted to get to a healthy weight and lifestyle before getting pregnant. I recently graduated from college with a BA in English and a certificate in Elementary Education. I am a proud military wife...13 years and counting. We are currently stationed in Maryland!

    Hi I have just joined today. I have a huge amount of weight to lose and it is a bit overwhelming to be honest!!! Always wanting a quick fix, it is hard to get my head round the fact it will take quite some time to achieve this goal!! :sad:
