    My cousin lives in Burlington. We drive up to visit once a year. Such a great area! Love swimming in Lake Champlain.

    My name is Beth and I currently live in New York (originally from Virginia). I am only 8 miles over the border from PA. Still have a lot of weigh to lose but always looking for fun events to fill up my weekends. Especially ones I can involve my son in.

    Hi everyone! I'm 24 years old and since I was a kid, I was bullied for my weight. I was called "Miss Piggy" when I was in middle school and it pretty much ruined my life. Years later, here I am. I have bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, panic attacks and of course, I'm fat. The highest I've ever been was when I was 18 years old. I was at 185 lbs. Right now I'm down to 156.8 lbs and working towards a goal of 130. This is not only for me to feel better about myself, but for me to love myself. I have very low self esteem and want nothing more than to be happy about what I see when I look at myself in the mirror. I live in Pennsylvania [recently moved here from New York] and am just working to get to that "new me". Feel free to add if you'd like. Take care.

    XOXO

    Hey I'm Mallory. I currently live near Plymouth. I've been fighting being overweight for pretty much as long as I can remember. Now is the time I start to win the fight though. :)

    Feel free to add me if you want.

    Hi Northeast MFP people! I'm Jenna, I live in the central CT area and I don't run... unless I'm being chased.

    I love the Northeast but have been suffering from "I Hate Winter" for several years. This year I vow to try to change that. I now have a remote starter in my car (yay!) and I plan to buy proper warm/dry outerwear. Outdoor winter activities can be fun if one is properly dressed... I hate being cold. I am considering cross-country skiing if it's not too expensive and I want to try snow tubing. :)

    I'm Leo and live in Central NJ, about 20 minutes east of Philly. I did a 5K walk with WW back in May of this year and then did a 4 mile Mud Run for Cancer in September. I'm currently training for the 2012 MS Philly 10K Mud Run in June.

    Hey folks, Steve here. I live in Beverly MA. I'm probably one of the 10 longest lasting active members of MFP, I started when there were maybe 100 members back in 2007. I'm also a personal trainer and used MFP to drop 55 lbs and make my transformations. I mostly come on now to help others reach the goals they are shooting for, offer support and advice, and just interact with a (mostly) great community. Hit me up if you have any exercise or nutrition questions, more than happy to help.

    Hello! My name is Carren, I live in Springfield, MA. Trying to lose a total of 87.6 pounds, 7 down so far! Also, hoping to be in shape to do the walk/run for HIV/AIDS awareness in September of next year in Forest Park. A yearly thing that I never take part in, but always want to as it's a cause that is very near and dear to me! Look forward to getting to know everyone and feel free to add me, can always use motivation and support and will do my best to give it back!
