    I am from Auburn IL just outside of Springfield. I have recently decided to get more involved with this and am hoping to find people near me that I can chat with and discuss options, issues, recipes and all that fun stuff.

    I live in Iowa, but it would take me maybe 10 minutes to get to Illinois. :)

    I live in Indiana, but it would take me maybe 15 minutes to get to (southern) Illinois. :)

    Seems like everyone is either from Chicago or the burbs around Chicago...I am NOT from any of those. I am however from the heart of Lincoln Land, near Decatur (grew up in Decatur), in a small town 10 min from there, Dalton City. Surrounded by farmland!

    I am living in Edwardsville at the moment, well for the next few years till my youngest gets out of high school. She is 11 now in 6th grade. I am searching for someone local that wants to walk or join the ymca so I have someone to "answer to." Sometimes self motivation is really hard for me, but I know I could feel so much better if I got more exercise.

    Also if anyone works from their car, I do home health nursing, and has ideas how to increase calorie burn while sitting I would love to chat.

    I went to supplement superstore and had a diet recommended for me which includes eating 4 times a day and am having issues with getting the foods ingested at the appropriate times, due to being in the car all day. I would take any ideas on that front too. I really don't like eating cold food all the time which is what I get when I keep food safe in a cooler with nowhere to heat it up.
