stepping out of the shadows

Hi all,

I've been a member for about a year and lost 20 lbs so far. I tend to lurk and this is my first post. I kinda slacked off around the 2nd half of school but I'm getting back on the wagon. I would love to lose my last 25 by Jan. as i have a cruise coming! I'm kind of weird but if you like that kind of thing I would like to have some friends on here! I don't post a lot (or umm....ever) but I read the fourms allmost everyday and they really inspire me. Ok -back to the shadows now
-Christy

    Hi Christy - I'm a lurker too so nothing to be ashamed about! I love reading what everyone else is writing and how they're all doing but can never think of anything interesting to say, so I don't bother!

    I've replied to a couple of posts but nothing much else.

    I've been on MFP for a few months now and have lost 12lbs - I'm happy maintaining this for the time being because my clothes now fit me again! I can't really afford to go out and buy a whole new wardrobe so I'm happy as I am unless I win the lottery!

    I think weird is great! Don't go hiding in the dark. I know it's important to stay away from the light but you have to embrace it! Umm... I don't know what I'm talking about. Anyway, I think friends are important. Pick out the positive ones and negative ones as well. Why negative people? I don't know. I just like the challenge of seeing someone eating a big greasy hamburger in front of me while they say, "you know you want this" as I try to resist. I'd love to see the day I cave. Have a nice day!

    Thanks for coming out of the shadows. Feel free to add me as a friend. All of my friends are weird. We are all choir and theater people.
