edited September 2024 in Introduce Yourself
I thought I should introduce myself and say hello since i just joined yesterday.
My name is Amber. I am 32 and live in Southern California. I found MFP through Ravelry (a knitting and crocheting community) and thought I'd try it out.
I've tried health programs before and have never been able to stick with them. When I did i couldn't seem to take the weight off. I'm determined for this to work.
I have been overweight all of my life and am trying to get healthy. I know the older i get the harder it will be to lose this weight and there are a lot of things I want to get done before I get too old. My goal is to lose 110 lbs.
Aside from knitting and crocheting I love to dance, play trivia games and do karaoke. I'm trying to find more ways to fit exercise into my life. I work in an office so I sit most of my day.

    ~waves back~ Hi Amber, welcome to MFP. I recently joined as well, and have been creeping around for a couple months trying to find the motivation to start logging seriously. I figure the more friends i make, the more accountable I will be and the more I will want to do.

    I live in Ontario, Canada and roughly have the same weight goal as you. I dream of the day when i'm able to say that I've lost 100lbs!!!

    I just started knitting when i had my son 9 months ago, and now looking to start crocheting - and i'm DEFINETLY a TRIVIA lover... you have lost me at karaoke though!!! :)
