Hi all, I am new to the group and am excited that there are others that share my same goals in the area.
I am 32 years old and live in Southern Maryland (Waldorf), however, I work in DC (gov't) which limits the amount of time I have to work out. Currently I am down about 30 lbs, but still have more to go. Look forward to meeting others who share in my goal.
Welcome to the group! I know there is a thread in here with a big representation of our southern Marylanders. Great job losing the 30lbs, keep up the good work.0 -

Hello! I'm Stephen. I live near Rockville, MD and work in DC. In the past I managed to lose 60 lbs and hit my ideal weight! Yay! Then I gained about 35 of it back, boo! So I joined MFP. So far so good. I'd like some MFP friends, though. Hint, hint!0

Hi! I'm Shannon (as evidenced by the name) and I just moved to the Baltimore area last year. I don't have a lot of time to get out and explore my new city so hopefully this group will give me some insight on what-to-see and maybe even make some new friends!0

Hello!
I live in Woodbridge, VA, and work in DC. I have a two year old a handsome and awesome husband. I however, need extra motivation to attain my weigh tloss goals. I'll love to hike and dance, excersies are no issues for me. I enjoy Zumba and also often go to KaZaXe classes in Alexandria, VA. Its the eating healthier part that's a great problem for me....
About a year ago i had lost about 20 lb. (halfway my goal) but started studying for a professional certification.
It was very stressful, long hours @ coffe shop/library studying after a 9hr day @ job plus 2 hrs commute back home. LOL I finished the 4th part of the exam (just need to take the ethics portion of it)
It was (and its still) a struggle to balance work, baby, hubby and house duties. Needless to say, I've gained just about all the weight I had lost almost a year ago. I'm hoping to get motivation, inspiration and tips and participate in weight loss challenges.
I also would like to participate in group hikes, health parties, watever.... my husband and I love meeting new peoples and other couples.
Ultimate goal is to loose 40 lb by next summer and meet nice and fun people in the process!
