    I was bred, born, and raised in a little town in northeast GA called Lula, which is very often mispronounced. I have been here on MFP for a little over a year, but started getting serious after the birth of my daughter. Feel free to add me!

    I have laughed at quite a few of your post in the forums. I should have known someone as witty as you was from GA!:laugh:

    Hey! I live in Forsyth, GA and work in Macon. Went to school at GA Southern and hopefully will be starting my Masters at UGA next spring. So great to see there are plenty of motivated GA folks on this site! I only want to lose about 15lbs, keeping it off has always been the issue for me.

    I've lived in Warner Robins since I was 2. I too work in Macon. I currently have 46.8 lbs to lose before reaching my goal. I would be down for any hiking meet-ups anyone might want to do, or any meet-ups that aren't too far from central GA.

    If your going to be in the stone mountain area, let me know. They let walkers in for free (just walking, not park amenities) and the road around the base of the mtn. is a 5 mile loop.
