I've been lurking around for nearly a month and I've decided its time to ask for some friends to help me keep going strong!

I'm 28, 5'10, and currently weigh 206ish lbs. I've lost 5 already through eating healthier, not drinking as much (i miss you wine!), and adding exercise back into my life! I feel good about this so far, but I'm hoping some friends will keep me motivated. My goal weight right now is just getting back to a weight where I can just feel right and healthy.

A few random things about me: My workout plans for the time being include Zumba and Nike + Training on the kinect. I have been making green smoothies for breakfast for the last month! I love a good bottle of wine. I am an architect in training who is studying for her licensing exams (on top of trying to cook healthy and workout). I have a husband who also wants to lose weight, but also is struggling.

Anybody interested in a new buddy? =)

    Hi! Add me!!
  • Hi there! I am also about a newbie, been here only a few weeks. This tracking has been helping but I find I'm a bit of a cheater (how can you log in just a "bite" of cookie?!) I am pretty short, 5'4" and 145, which is about 15 lbs more than I should be. I am a Coloradan and probably love a good bottle of wine just as much as you do! I haven't given it up, just logging in and trying to only have 1 (or 2) glasses a few times a week. I have 3 kids, My youngest turns 18 in 2 weeks and is going off to college in the fall so I don't have dinner ready every night like I used to because nobody is ever home anymore. That is a good thing because I pick when I cook. Seems I don't think calories count when your standing up!
