Greetings!
Laura from Reno here (by way of southeastern PA...Philly area). Moved to Reno over 13 years ago...met my now ex-husband online & moved here to be with him.
My life pretty much revolves around my kids; but we like walking, riding our bikes (when son's doesn't break, which is every time he rides it...ARGH!), playing in the fountains outside the movie theater in Sparks & other stuff, of course. My best friend (who happens to be my ex's sister-in-law, go figure, LOL!) & I have been talking about hitting up Tahoe this summer for some hiking & stuff with the kiddos.0 -
oh and I'm new here so I don't really know a lot about the state and what there is to do in the area0

Moved to Reno about 6 years ago from southern Oregon0

I'm Erin. I live in Gardnerville Ranchos. My hubby and I are actually Colorado natives and have only lived in NV about two years. My husband got a great job out year when we graduated from college. I'm happy to be so close to lake Tahoe and Topaz Lake so we can take advantage of all the wonderful things to do outside.0

I have no idea about Elko...I've only driven through town a few times. If you're up for a drive, Reno is about 4 hours away & Tahoe isn't much further than that. You should definitely come to town in August for Hot August Nights & the Rib Cook-Off0 -
I'm Alisha. I moved to the Henderson/Las Vegas area mid-2006, but relocated to New York (hated it) for almost 2 years, until I could no longer stand it and moved back to Las Vegas. When I first moved to NV, my daughter was in high school..., she is now married and out of the house and I am enjoying it. :drinker: Is it wrong to not understand/submit to "empty nest syndrome"? :blushing:0

I spent 3 month Temporary Duty Assignment (TDY) to Nellis AFB in Las Vegas, NV for Operation Red Flag (the Air Force version of Top Gun), and I have a Nevada Shelf Corporation based in Henderson. Does that count? Now I'm living in El Paso, TX.oh and I'm new here so I don't really know a lot about the state and what there is to do in the area

Hi!
I am also in northern Nevada. Just trying to eat healthier. I'm young and not yet overweight yet have started to show signs of type II diabetes. Both my parents and all of my grandparents have it so taking the initiative to lose a few pounds and cut back on sugar.0 -

that's why I made this group so you'd have people close to help you out. My bro has that and it one of the seasons I'm working so hard is so I avoid it.0 -

Hey guys,
I also live in Reno. Born and raised Nevadan lol. I have been on this sight for a while, but I always lose my motivation. I think its because Ive never added anybody on here I just went solo. So hopefully this time around I will try and get support from people. And the Rib cook off is AWESOME!0 -

Have you heard of the Rocky Mountain Oyster Festival in Virginia City? I wouldn't classify those as "awesome", LOL!! :bigsmile:0 -
Hi! My name is Tammi, I have lived here since 1999. Moved here from the Bay area...and will never go back to that traffic hell! I do miss the ocean, but visit it on vacations where ever I go. I am a hospital pharmacy tech, looking to lose weight after being on steroids for 2 years (almost 2 years ago... and finally feeling somewhat motivated to lose it). I gained 70 lbs.... I have lost 10 and still need to lose more to not be considered "obese" on the BMI scale. I have been married to my highschool sweetheart since I was 20... he is trainging for the tough mudder.... I think he is crazy! What ever motivates you though right? Need all the help I can get as he seems to melt fat away just thinking about it.
The Rib Cookoff is my favorite time of year!!! Last two years we have been invited by friends to sit at a table, and what a difference! This year will be a challenge though....trying to not over eat...or drink! ADD ME AS A FRIEND :happy:0 -
this group died down really quick. where are my Elko people?0

I haven't seen too many people from places other than Reno/Sparks or the Las Vegas area...although one of my MFP pals used to live in Fernley...and another one still does0

Hello there. Been a Reno resident for a few years now and I love it here. I love to do anything active. Ride bikes, hike, softball, volleyball, pretty much anything. I love camping and I am looking forward to a summer full of it! I'm considering doing tough mudder this year in Tahoe. A friend asked me to join their group, just not quite sure if I'm physically there yet. If I do not do it this year, it will definitely be a must for next! Hope everyone is succeeding in their weight loss and fitness goals. Eat clean and train tough!0

I did get kicked out of a casino in Elko once because I wasn't 21 at the time...had to wait in the car while my then b/f (now ex-husband) finished our 2 games of keno, LOL!0
