Hi! I'm in Central Indiana, 55 years young, with about 100 pounds to lose. I could use some friends and accountability. And, I'll do my best to motivate you....if you'll return the favor!

    I am a 52 y/o young lady now that I have lost over a hundred pounds.

    Now i zipline, kayak, do zumba classes and 5Ks, and I am planning a tandem ski-dive laster this year.

    Getting the weight off will definately help you feel and look younger.

    Hang in there--you are on your way to a new you!

    You can friend me too! I'm a Chicago native transplanted into hot, dry, but sunny Las Vegas and understand that it can sometimes be a challenge to maintain a consistent, and effective work out without good support and motivation which the latter one I often lack in=)
