I want to get to know the people in the MFP Community a little bit better. What does everybody do? What is your title?

I'll go first. I am a stay-at-home Mom and Editor/Proofreader of my own business called The Werd Nerd. :glasses:

    Sure! The Werd Nerd is an Editing/Proofreading Service that I provide for many types of writers, from students writing essays/term papers, theses, etc. If you'll notice my ticker, it has my website address on it. I have a natural knack for catching errors that others do not, and I am educated on the 16th Edition of The Chicago Manual of Style. You may visit my website for details. I also have a Facebook page. :happy:

    I'm so glad that so many people responded. It looks like we have many people from various walks of life on here. I love it! This is a great site! I am highly motivated to get my weight down and back into those jeans of mine. :wink: If anyone needs motivation, I'm your gal! Wow! rideshazo, it looks like you're a busy, busy woman! Whew! And Melanie, 8-month-old twins! You've got your hands full.

    I look forward to reading many more replies on this topic. Have a great day, everyone! :flowerforyou:

    I am a mathematics lecturer at a Tennessee university. I teach mainly "dual" courses in high schools (university math course taken by high school students who get both university and high school credit). Since last year I have been teaching via video link. Before that I taught in person at various high schools around the state. This meant traveling 150 - 200 miles a day. I did that for 2 1/2 years. Packed on 50 pounds in no time. I thought once the commuting was finished, then the weight would come off. I went back to the gym, but nothing was working. So I am now at Day 8 without soda. I'm a huge DP and Coke-aholic. More than a 6-pack a day. I have been drinking only water (no fruit juice, diet soda, or other subs). My clothes are getting looser, but I am only going to weigh every 2 weeks. I was a daily weigh-in person and it drove me nuts. Would get so discouraged if the scale did not immediately reflect a good day at the gym. I will be weighing myself in 6 days and that will be the first weigh-in since joining MFP.

    This is a great place to get inspiration from the journeys of others. I just love it!
