    Hi, i am Nancy and new to this dieting. Right now I am trying to get a handle on what I can eat and what I need to stay away from. I have some limitations to exercise and don't know if this will work without exercising but a back injury keeps me from being able to do much. Any ideas is appreciated!

    I moved to Tennessee three years ago and I love it here. Am south of Nashville.

    Hello! Moved to Knoxville, TN in July 2011 from Richmond, VA. Starting weight was 222, now hovering just under 200 but my final goal weight is 145. Have a goal to do a half-marathon next year and be the hot girl I was in my early 20's. Love to get healthy and can't wait for my face/chin to thin out as well. Thanks everyone for your support in advance!

    Hello everyone! My name is Tiffani and I have lived in Tennessee my whole life. I grew up in a small town in Northeast TN, but moved to Knoxville in 2003 to attend UT. I graduated in 2008 and have lived in Knoxville since then. I have a lot of weight to lose, but realized how amazing it is to have motivating friends on MFP! I love Tennessee and I love this site :) Feel free to add me. I'm always looking to widen my friends circle and motivation group!

    I'm 27/F, from Smyrna,TN - single, believer, and I have a small dog. Love to travel, meet new people, love watching Bones, Law and Order: SVU, and NCIS.

    Just starting to "workout" and I'm doing some walking/running as well as a step class and some stretching nightly before bed. I feel great about what I've done so far! can't wait to have the endurance to do more!

    Goal Weight: 170
    Reason for losing: Trying to get healthy - If I reach my goal weight I'll pursue joining the military.
