Hi, everyone! My name is Jackie. The title of my post pretty much says it all. I've been on this site before but didn't stick to it, and boy am I paying for it now. I'm almost 200 pounds (197 to be exact) and I've been working for the past few days on cleaning up my diet and exercising.
I'd love to make some new friends here who can encourage me along the way, so please add me if you like! I use the Runkeeper app to train to run a 5k in October, so if you have it, add me on there as well -- my name on there is Jackie Alicia.
Thanks in advance, I can't wait to meet you guys!

Welcome and congrats on making the decision to change. I am not a big runner ( i have a crap leg) but I work out 4-6 times per week and log daily for 6 months.
Feel free to add me!0 -
Hey I would love to be your friend. I started in the same place. I was fast approaching 200lb and really needed to put my life in order. I try to log daily so I hope I can motivate you.0
