    I actually live just outside of Birmingham but I work downtown. I joined MFP in early 2010, then kind of dropped off for a while and have since been back full-time since April of this year.

    My primary goal revolves more around building muscle mass as opposed to losing weight, although in working towards that goal I can tell that I have lost a few pounds and some much needed inches around the waist. :)

    And yes jlzrdking .... Roll Tide!!! ;)

    Hi everyone, Congrats on your weight loss thus far & keep up the great work! My name is Tiffany. I am a wife, and mother of two girls (7 & 3). I am a SAHM looking for Friends & Motivators! I've been heavy mostly my whole life that I remember but I am older now, finsished having kids so I have no reason to gain anymore weight & every reason to loose. I am ready to get in control of my life & stop letting my Chocolate addiction get in my way of living life to the fullest! :)
    I am a member of my local ymca, I love ZUMBA aerobics! If I cant get to the Gym I walk around my neighborhood.

    I have been on MFP for a little over two weeks & I've lost 5lbs so far. I LOVE THIS SITE. It's helped me learn about what I am putting in my body. I've learned a lot already about portion size & calorie counting. FEEL FREE TO ADD ME.. I will give support & only ask the same in return!!

    Hi, I'm Jennie. I joined back in the summer and was active for about a month. I quit logging in and did a Whole30 (Paleo) after that with a group on Facebook. Now I'm back on MFP. I've lost 7 lbs with about 10 or 15 to go. I aim for low carb and paleo when I'm feeling like it. Otherwise, I just try to watch the processed food, sugar, and simple carbs. I try to get 30 minutes of brisk walking 6 days a week, one off day on the weekend. I also try to get in 3 days of 20 to 30 minutes of a high intensity kettlebell workout in when I can. Kettlebells are by far the simplest and most effective way I've found to drop the inches and gain strength (thereby burning calories & fat).

    I live in Tuscaloosa right now with my 3 kitty cats and my fiancé. But... I'm an Auburn University alum... so WAR EAGLE!

    Hey everyone!

    My name is Jennifer and I am from Mobile, AL and am new to MFP. Like most every other dieting thing I am skeptical but just from reading some of y'alls stories it seems like this really works and I am really excited to hopefully be reaching my weight loss goals!

    I'm in college, getting my degree in geology, and usually have a busy lifestyle. I'm in the last two semesters there and will be able to make a little time now to focus on my health and getting some of this weight off!

    Roll Tide!!!

    Brett from Birmingham here! Just joined MFP yesterday. Already really like it! I've lost 15lbs over the past month by eating healthier and working out at Planet Fitness. I think MFP will help me keep on track. Good luck to everyone!

    Hi everyone!!! :smile:

    I'm Randa. I'm from Tuscaloosa, AL. I just got started on MFP. My husband joined up with me. We just got the Wii Fit and I hope that that will be helpful. We are going to try it out tonight! Can't wait to get started for real!!! I used to be in great shape and this out of shape body (that I'm quite certain isn't mine) stays tired too often. I'm gonna try real hard to trade it in for my old one!! haha.

    I would appreciate anyone who wants to friend me help keep me motivated!! And keep me in check too! Thanks!!!

    Good luck to all y'all!!!
