New and Looking for Supportive Friends

Options
Hi,

I'm new to the site. It looks great. I will be 40 in June. My goal is to lose 30lbs. I love to run. I'm doing 5ks this season and hope to move up to 10k's soon. I want to learn to lift to help define and tone my arms, chest, back, abs and legs. I am a very happy and cheery person. I would love to have a supportive group of people to talk to.

    Best of luck - make sure your friends hold you accountable as well as being supportive of you. I joined to get off the diet roller coaster. I have asked my friends to get on me if I am consistently going over my calorie goal or not logging exercise. In my experience you need both support and sometimes a swift kick in the backside.

    Add me if you'd like.
