    Friend gave me a month free membership pass to get back into my gym (during a time when my blood pressure was high/ stress)
    Was told about MFP after a spinning class; I figured I was not interested (took a look)
    Joined MFP (yay)
    Dad made it through two emergency surgeries and is trying to walk after two months of lying in bed (Jumps for joy)
    My hubby and kids still loves me (despite my busy schedule)

    It's hard to say...it has been a rough year...I have moved to a new state for a job, all alone and have been single for pretty much the whole year which is new to me....my foot injury has been chronic and my health has been so-so

    Here are a few of the perks I can think of:

    I am finally back on track health wise...lost 7 lbs in the month of December and I feel confident that I can actually do it this time.
    I have come to appreciate family even more...being away from everything you know makes you realize what things are important.
    I have been dating a really great guy for about a month and a half...not sure what is going to happen, but I am grateful to have met him and he has made my life better since we have been together.
    Coming to terms with my loneliness has been really difficult for me that past couple of months. It's hard making friends and meeting people at my age in a strange place, but I think it will get easier over time.
    I have finally gotten better from my foot injury and about to start training for my first half-marathon that will be in April 2012.
    I am so greateful for MFP and the great people I have met on here...I love having a support system and motivation and being able to help motivate others. Please add me if you would like a new MFP friend!
