in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone. My name is Kat.
I'm a dental hygienist so I sit and clean teeth all day.
I did WW last summer and I lost 15 lbs. Of course, I gained it all back over this dumb Chicago winter.
This summer is different. I have my first house, more stress, a full time job, and my first cat. And so now I have no money and I'm using MFP instead (heard it's better anyways!)
I'm going on a cruise in August and I know I need to lose weight for sure for it.
I'm really good at keeping on track but I'm such a whiny butt and I need people to talk to.
I'm doing couch to 5k and I also joined Planet Fitness.

I weigh 169 and I'm 5'2" and my goal is eventually to get to 150 by Halloween. 160 by the cruise.

Nice to meet everyone :) I know we can do this together.

    Request sent! We are very similar, I had success twice in the past with WW (I loathe the new points system though) and I just made it through my first week of C25K. I am going on a cruise Labor Day week and I am running in a 5K on 8/23 so I am motivated!
