Hi Everyone!
I joined a couple weeks ago, but am only just starting to try to use this on a daily basis. I also recently started working with a Pilates trainer once a week, as well as a regular trainer. I'm 33, and am getting married next year (Sept. 2012) and want to really kick start my getting in shape now. I would like to lose about 20 to 25 pounds and also tone up. I also just need to start being healthier overall. I suffer from pretty severe headaches, and as a result am on daily meds. I hope to be weaned off the meds this year, and I know being healthier in general will help with that goal.
Anyway, I work best when I work with peers and can both give and receive motivation. So I thought I would introduce myself on this forum. I cannot promise that I won't slack some days and not make an entry one day, but I can promise to try to always be positive and supportive when I do. Feel free to friend me.
Thanks,
Monica

Hi! I tried MFP a couple of years ago, without introducing myself and obtaining online friends. I decided to make it "Public" and it has made a tremendous difference! The friends here are dynamic, if you wish to friend me, I will try my best to be an encouragement to you as others have been to me!0
