Howdy From Texas

nbferry87

Hi everyone! I actually joined MFP a few months ago, but have only recently started using it when I realized that I had put on 20 lbs in an 8 month period (yikes!). I had always been pretty slender, but after a sudden break up with my boyfriend of five years back in September, and an incredibly stressful student teaching semester I suddenly found myself with, uh, unwanted 'baggage.' It's since been a struggle to not indulge, and after not being able to workout for a few months (hip injury from a car accident), I'm finally trying to get back on track. I could certainly use the support though! I feel like I fall off the wagon every other day, and realized that if I'm going to do this right I need the support of others. I look forward to cheering you all on as well

I'm no cowboy from Texas, I'm from the Netherlands .... well we do have loads of cows for what that is worth ^^

Annyway best of luck on weightloss !

So perhaps a Dutch cowboy? ;p

Greetings from A-Town here! I hear you on the rapid weightloss thing. It's almost like we just open the flood-gates for a while because we just don't have the willpower to put towards it.
But you're here now and in my few days on this site, it's seeming great
