Hi, another newbie. A little about me

As a disclaimer, I started an MFP profile awhile ago ( so long ago I don't remember when). But I'm getting started again, and have set a new goal for myself of being back to 130 pounds by the time I'm 30. That gives me a about 14 months to lose 50 pounds.

So a little about myself.
I am the wife of a US Marine. We got married when I was 19 and 130lbs
I had my first child at 23, after giving birth I was over 160lbs
I had gotten myself down to a "comfortable" 150lbs when we started TTC our second child, but with miscarriages and depression I was soon nearing 170
After succesfully giving birth to our second child I was at 190
Sometime after that I initially joined MFP at 186, and now at almost 29 years old I am at 180

I am trying to be more active, joining my husband in his daily exercise routine as well as walking along with Leslie Sansone videos. I'm slowly cutting out extra sugars, starting with soda, and all those lovely Little Debbies. So there it is, me in a nutshell. I'm hoping that joining the forums ( and maybe making some friends) will help me in my accountability, and ultimately my weight loss journey. If I look like the kind of person you could be friends with, please add me (i'm not sure yet how to do that myself)

ETA: Oh, I joined in 2012!
