in Introduce Yourself
Hello. I recently joined and am looking for a few folks to be supportive but not overly so. I am a very busy working wife/mother, so just making time to exercise and log my food is enough for me to do. I enjoy responding to comments or being on the boards but would not have time to comment on status reports every day or anything like that. I'd also prefer to include people who had enough time themselves to create their profile. I exercise but am not a runner. My goal is to lose 20 pounds during the next six months or so. Looking forward to meeting new friends!

    Feel free to add me anyone! I am 47, work full time as a nurse and I am in grad school also! I have been working out pretty regularly, but I just now downloaded a C25K app and I am determined to start running!. My body is willing....my brain is still stuck in the "you are too fat to run" mentality....hopefully my body will win!
