Hi everyone.
My name is Monica and I'm from Pittsburgh born and raised. 36 year old no kids working in healthcare field.
I have quite a bit of weight to lose about 120 lbs so here I am
I am just learning to cook so this should be interesting. I welcome all comments and suggestions.
For activity I'm doing kickboxing and walk/runs ..well not really running but a fast walk!
I need to watch my sodium and cholestrol so i'm staying away from fast weeks 6.5 days a week and for the Steeler games will be a treat for me.
