Hi fellow Ohioans! I live halfway between Dayton and Cincinnati. Preparing to batten down the hatches for the storms they are saying will be hitting later today.0

Hello all. Living in dayton. Avid cyclist. Hoping to meet new people to help with motivation. Feel free to add me, I'm always on. I also love to help motivate.0

I am in Dayton, about. I am a geek, a Christian, an animal lover, a stepmom, a wife, an artist, a chef and work part time. I'd love to meet new people with similar interests. I'm still trying to find an exercise I can enjoy, but I'm thinking about recreational sword fighting. I used to love it. Yep, I guess I'm weird.0

Happy Sunday everyone. How is everyone enjoying the weather? At least it is starting to warm up a bit from the cold front that went through with all the rain/storms last week. I've posted here before, but I'm looking for some more active members for MFP friends & cheerleaders. I'm from Union County Ohio in the small town of Raymond. I'm near Marysville and work on east side of Columbus. Anyone doing any 5K's in Franklin County this year? I think some friends of mine are going to check out the Neon Dash on Saturday, May 31st. This will be my first one and hopefully not my last. I pray that it's a good summer full of new friends, good eating, and lots of exercising!0

Hello everyone! I'm 26, live in Columbus, and this is my second attempt with MFP. I found success the first time, but fell off the wagon after a couple years from switching jobs and moving. I'm not sure what else to say about myself, but I look forward to talking to you all!0

I'm in the Cincinnati Area, began using MFP in 2013 and lost just over 50 lbs, had a hiccup and got off track, gained about 12 lbs back. BOO!!! Anyway, getting myself back on track to meeting and maintaining my goal for a healthier me!0

Hello fellow Ohio peeps!!! I am in Kettering, just outside of Dayton. I have been on MFP since Nov and got within 3 pds of my goal and then fell off the wagon. Now back on it and I have 8 pds to go.
Please feel free to add me. I love to see the before and after pics and here the stories of accomplishment.
Good luck to all!0 -

Hi, I'm Kathy and I live in West Chester. I've been off the site for a bit and I'm back now. I work out at Ideal Fitness and attend a Boot Camp in Blue Ash. I have a long way to go to reach my goal, but I wasn't getting there with just the exercise. I know now it's healthy eating and working out! Motivation from others goes a long way, so please post to my inbox and I'll do the same!0

Hello Ohio. I am from Originally from Dayton, Oh but I working Cincinnati. I am hoping to relocate back to Dayton via my job as I can work anywhere. I miss Dayton and recently separated from my wife and hope to end up in Dayton. I work out 5 to 6 days a week as a cyclist and looking to hookup with cyclist in the Dayton area to work out with. I average about 20 miles a day sometimes I do light days of no more than 10 and long rides on the weekends. with a rest day or two in between. I average between 100 hundred and 120 miles per week depending on how my job goes. I can make up the miles on the weekends. Looking for like minded riders to ride with a lose a few more pounds as I'm not the most disciplined eater.0

Greetings from Gahanna -- that's a suburb of Columbus. I love our state, even if it is a bit football-crazy for my taste. It's funny that the rest of the country associates us with cows and corn fields, but I am a city girl all the way. I have a fantastic husband and an adorable son who just turned two. I'm a huge nerd who works in IT for a local hospital system. I'm also kind of artsy by nature. I paint, sketch, write, creative writing, and I'm a voracious reader.
In the past it's been very difficult to stay fit due to having such a sedentary job and an inclination to spend even more time in front of a computer once I get home. Thankfully I've been promoted to a position supporting end users out in the field, and that allows me to move around a lot more throughout the day.
My primary motivation has been my son. He seems to get faster every day and I want to be able to keep up with him! I want to stick around for a long time to watch him grow and have kids of his own, and I think my best chance at making sure that happens is to give my lifestyle a major overhaul. Unfortunately, genetics are working against me. All the women in my family are obese. Both my mother and my grandmother had gastric bypass surgeries, and I want to break the chain and lose weight through a healthier diet and regular exercise.
I've been using MFP for 30 days, coupled with a Fitbit Flex, and so far I'm very enthusiastic. It really seems to take the mystery out of weight loss. There's a "numbers in, numbers out" sort of logic to it that I can really wrap my head around!0
