Hi from Boston!

Hello all! My name is Colleen and I currently live outside of Boston with my awesome husband. I've always been active and into sports, but unfortunately have a nasty habit of turning to food during times of stress and put on about 10-15 lbs while finishing graduate school and moving out here a few years ago. After getting about halfway through P90X last year, I got a horrible cold/bronchitis that left me with fatigue and a nasty cough for a couple of months which forced me to stop. I was frustrated at the fact that even though I was getting stronger and in shape, the number on the scale wasn't dropping and had to face the tough reality that I was being careless about what I ate which was negating all the working out. I finally just got fed up at being the weight I was, so I joined MFP to force myself to keep an eye on those calories and it's been working amazingly! I also just restarted P90X, which I hope will help shed the pounds even faster than just watching what I eat!
Looking forward to getting to know some of you and hearing about everyone's successes!
