    Hello - I'm Susan. Tennessee transplant almost three years ago via Indiana. I live about 25 miles SW of Nashville, work in Brentwood, go to a gym in Bellevue. Been curious if any other MFP'ers are members there . . .

    Thirty-three years old, recently re-married (less than a year), mother of one pretty awesome 11 year old boy.

    5 lbs down - 30 to go . . . :ohwell:

    Hey Everybody
    My name is Patrick. I was born in Georgia in 1989 and moved to Tennessee in 2000. I work in Nashville and live in Murfreesboro.
    I started changing my diet (slightly) last October when I saw 292 on the scales and exercising. I got down to 265 before getting My Fitness Pal on my phone over a week ago. Now I'm down to 250. Its nice to see all the success people have had but see that people are doing good close to home helps it sink in that much more. Add me if your looking for support. Always happy to try and help people and love seeing people succeed.
    ...go to a gym in Bellevue. Been curious if any other MFP'ers are members there . . .
    While I don't go there hardly any. I know a few people that work out there regularly and maybe a lifeguard that works at YMCA in Bellevue.
  • Hey I'm Adrienne. I was born and raised in East TN. In October 2010 I married a wonderful man and transplanted him to TN lol. I love God and my family. I am trying to lose baby weight and hopefully get strong enough that my next pregnancy isn't as difficult. Anyone can feel free to add me. I am always looking for supportive friends :)

    Hello!

    I'm Tina and I live in Murfreesboro with my family, I have lived here for only 6 years. A friend sent me an invite to this site, I didn't even know it existed! I am trying to live a healthy lifestyle, and it's nice to have support (especially living in an area where there are dangerous foods everywhere! lol). I would really like to make some new buddies on here and maybe find people to go for walks, runs, hikes, or bike rides with. Good luck to everyone on their weight-loss journey, and if you need another person to throw you support, I am available! :) Take care!
