    Good morning, all!!

    I'm Liz from Hawaii.

    1- I also love purple
    2- I have survived brain tumor surgery; 20% chance of survival - it took me 9months to learn how to walk again (hense all the weight gain)
    3- Love my dog and music! I don't know what I would have done without them!

    Now I'm back to my new normal and am ready to get my body back in shape; just have to work around my new challenges of the nerve damage in my arm and leg.

    You can't keep this redhead down!! :bigsmile: Bring it! But I will admit I do hit roadblocks along the way and need that additional motivation - and this group looks like the one for me!

    I have to go look for a superhero costume now.... I always liked Storm from the X-Men.... or ohhh... Catwoman!!

    Hey, kiddos! I'm Rachael


    8 times out of 10, I'm either I'm reading or pooping. The other 20%, I'm sleeping.

    I laugh at my inner monologue all day long. It's shameful and embarrassing, and I'll never stop.

    I don't own a scale. Which is kinda wrong, but when I did have one, I obsessed about every ounce.

  • Hello, ladies! I'm Yusra from UAE. I'm a student of Pharmacy and currently in my 4th year. Just one more year to go!!

    Even though I'm going to be a Pharmacist, I'm all about computers; hardware, software, graphic designing, yada yada.

    I first decided to lose weight in the last year of college when a professor joked about my weight in front of the entire classroom. I hated him for humiliating me, but to be honest, it was the moment I realized I wanted to get rid of the extra weight that I had been carrying around since high school. I was 170 lbs then, and today I'm 130. (I have gained 20 lbs as I went a bit too far with calorie restricting and also because I fell off the wagon). So my major goal right now is to be FIT. I don't care if I don't lose any weight during the 90 days of P90X but as long as I look lean and lose inches, I'm HAPPY!

    And thank you for reading <3

    My name is Julie, but you can call me Jules as most people do. :flowerforyou:

    I love God with all my heart, but often fall short of His expectations for me. :sad:

    I am a nurse by trade, and a writer in my heart. :heart:

    I have struggled with food addiction and weight loss all my life, and it is only in the last year or so I have fully realized how much my issues with food have colored all the events in my life. Trying to undo all that is my main focus right now. :happy:

    Name: Alexandra

    I'll go by Raven for now :).

    1) I have an urge to, in mockery of the stick figure families on cars, put a stick lady and then like 20 stick cats on the back of my car so everyone will leave me alone on the road. Everyone knows you need to leave the crazy cat ladies alone.. They will throw cats at you if you tailgate them. /nod

    2) I'm a giant nerd/gammer. I like to play games, watch anime, geek out over things, and more. (Playing computer games and working a desk job is partly how I got so big in the first place.) I also happen to work in IT currently.

    3) I'm an avid hunter of white-tail deer. They are tasty and are what's for dinner. :p I own a rifle, pistol, and a crossbow. I have very valid survival skills and if there is a Zombie Apocalypse I would be a valuable asset to your team. ^_^.

    I can always use more friends so add me if you please :). Also as per the third instruction in the group info, I met someone hot on here and it is me :D. But I don't think you want dibs on a girl ;p.
