Hello, my name's Ashley, I'm 27 and just joined MFP this past Monday. My weight loss journey started on March 1st when I joined the "Biggest Loser" competition for a fun contest at work... so far I have lost 26 lbs. and there is one more weigh in this Thursday, and the final one next Thursday, May 19th. I'm in first place for the time being, so wish me luck!

I have been losing weight by eating better, walking the track with my son Evander (2yrs), & daughter Arianna (6 months) 3-4 evenings a week, and than exercising on the Wii when I have time to fit in a 15 or 20 minute session here and there. I would like to keep up this weight loss after the contest is over, and hope to lose another 40 lbs to get within my "ideal weight range".

Would like to make friends for encouragement, inspiration & to follow and support you as well. :-)

Also, if you have free time, if you could vote for my daughter in this radio station contest for cute baby faces, it would be appreciated! Her name is Arianna, just type it in:

Look forward to hearing from everyone!
