    Hi everyone! My name is Jennifer and I live in Columbia or HoCo. We moved here from rural Missouri, and I was absolutely floored by the traffic here!! I feel sorry for all the folks with the insane commutes. I can use all the motivational help that I can get...anyone can add me, just let me know that your from the DMV or DelMarVa group so I know your not a scammer. I look forward to taking on this journey together. We CAN do it!!! :laugh: :smile:

    Hi everyone. I'm Terrence, live in NE DC (moved here from Atlanta 4 years ago) and am an engineer for a consulting firm in Columbia, Md. I run a lot. at my peak i could run a half marathon. Now I do 3 miles or so daily. I'm looking to lose about 10-20 pounds and since we talk about commutes, mine is abut 30-45 mins each way but it's against the flow of traffic (i'm leaving dc in the morning when everyone is coming in and vice versa in the afternoon), so it's not really THAT bad. the thing that slows me down the most is traffic lights before i hit the highway

    Just joined this group! I'm from Frederick :) No bad commute here, because I'm at home with my 2 little ones right now :) Would love to lose about 20 lbs and get in the 120's (I'm 5'3) like I was when I got married... Glad to find this group and have support from people around me! Feel free to add me as a friend! I fell off my wagon two months ago, and have to re do some of my work at losing weight, and today is my first day on fitness pal, and back on a diet ;)

    Hi all, been here on MFP about 30 days, and am new to the group. Native Californian, living in Burke, VA, and commuting to Reston. Looking for local workout buddies that might be interested in hiking/walking/dog parks, etc.

    New mfp'er here, I have lost 13 on weight watchers and have another 20 to go to the dream weight. Running, especially marathons, are my thing. Did B'more 'thon last Sat and came in at 4:28' pretty slow for me, beneath my 3:52 PR and very far from the 3:30 I need for a BQ. I have decided the 20# I need to make disappear will be the ticket. So glad to join and hope there are some other runners out there near to MoCo.
