    Hi everyone!! I am originally from Pipestone in SW MN, but have called many places my home in the last several years due to the military lifestyle.

    I will always be a MN girl at heart though!! :) For our anniversary, my husband and I went to an Away game for the Twins in Oakland. :) Go TWINS!! :)

    Greetings! Nice to see a group of fellow people from as my dad would say it "The Great White North" (mind you he should talk he's a yooper).

    I'm Melissa, I reside in Rosemount but am extremely close to the Apple Valley border. I just joined MFP about a week ago and have enjoyed myself so far. I'm trying to get back to my target weight for my height as I have a not so great family history with heart issues, and I figure healthy weight and regular exercise should help lessen some of the risks.

    So far I've lost some weight and boy was it a surprise to see that I had, as I had been stuck at the same weight for about a month, so I'm gonna keep going on and hopefully be down close to my goal weight by the end of the holidays.

    Thanks for making this an open group and letting me join up.

    I have been on MFP for several months but am new to the discussion boards and community. My goals are to continue to eat properly and train to run my first marathon next year.

    Feel free to add me.

    I have been on MFP for awhile but only started racking my food in August. I only recently started posting on the forums and joining groups. I have been looking for great places to get encouragement for continuing my weight loss journey and just found this group.

    I grew up in Maple grove and Dayton, now I live in Fridley.

    Hi Everyone!

    I'm Megan, I grew up in Rosemount. I moved around for a few years and now have been in South St Paul for the last 6 years.

    I started running this year and have totally fallen in love with it. I am terrified of what I am gonna do when the snow finally comes. Any other runners who can offer me some tips? How late into the season do you run outside? I am going to do it for as long as I can take it!

    I went to high school in South St Paul. I am living in Inver Grove now. We are really close.

    I was born in St Paul. Moved to California when I was 2. Moved to Hayward Wisconsin when I was 3 and lived there until 1990. Then we moved to South St Paul where I stayed through high school. Now I am in Inver Grove Heights. Funny thing is when I was in high school Inver Grove Heights kids were our rivals. :) Now my kids go to school in Inver Grove and always have. I love it here. It is a nice peaceful city.

    I'm Jeanne. I live in Minnetonka. I've been on MFP for a while but finally got serious when the scale hit a certain number in September. I'm really happy with where I am now, and want to continue the positive progress. Hi to everyone!

    I live in the east central region, Brook Park address.. ( near Hinckley) I figure people would recognize the Hinckley name due to the Casino.... :-)

    People USUALLY think I mean Brooklyn park... silly metro folks :-P

    What about knowing Hinckley from the fire?

    My name is Carol. I grew up near Rochester, have lived in Winona and Rochester and now live in Robbinsdale and spend significant time in S. Mpls.

    Hello fellow Minnesotans!! I live in Rochester, have for almost 10 years now, but I graduated from Elgin-Millville. I lived in Wanamingo through 4th grade, then Zumbro Falls for a couple years, then Plainview for a few years, and then Elgin. I'm sure many people on here have probably never heard of those small towns, but yeah, that's where I'm from! I currently work in Roch and own a nice little townhome. That's a little about me :smile: Anything else you wanna know.......just ask! Have a great weekend everyone!!!

    I grew up near Mazeppa and graduated from Mazeppa HS (a couple years before they merged with Zumbrota), so we played E-M and Wanamingo in sports. So, yeah, I know all those towns...one of my grandmas lived in Zumbro Falls for awhile. Both my parents grew up by Lake City.
