    Whoa...maybe I should too!
    I'm 34. I play on a rugby team and want to play at a higher level, so I figured it was time to get in better shape. I work in an office down town, but a Gym opened up last spring in the same block as my office, so I figured now was the time to get going! I work with an awesome trainer there. In fact she monitors MFP to make sure I'm eating well!

    I have 3 teen boys.
    I just got married 6 months ago to a wonderful woman.
    About 5 years ago I lost about 60 lbs, but put it all back on when I went through my divorce.

    My name is Isa, from West Jordan. I have 2 little kids, an active, loud, and way to smart for her own good, 4 year old daughter and an active, super hero wanna be, 2 year old son. I have a hardworking, loving husband, who has lost 95 lbs in the last year and a half and they are my world. Working out and eating right isn't new for me, or us as a family, but I would like to get better. Although working out isn't new, running is for me. I want to run a half marathon by next year... so I am slowly working up to it. Anyways, I have been a stay at home mom since my first pregnancy until recently I started working outside my home. Fitting family, exercise, good health and work has been a challenge, but not impossible. I want to get down to my predating my husband weight. :) I gained a bit after meeting my husband and then getting married and pregnant didn't help. LOL I have made a few blog entries on my page about gaining and losing and gaining it back with a second pregnancy.... So that is where I am now and about 22 lbs away from my goal weight, which I want to reach by my 6th wedding anniversary in December. :) Love MFP though!!

    I'm Laurie, currently living in Salt Lake City, but hometown is West Jordan. Basically I work, go to SLCC and stalk MFP. I am a member of 24 Hour fitness gym and trying to complete the Jillian Michael's 30 day shred. I love our beautiful state and really want to get out and go hiking and start to enjoy our landscape!

    I'm Ryan from Sugarhouse. I'm single and living on my own, and working to be much more active and fit than I ever have before. I am doing the Stronglifts strength training program and using MFP to track my food intake. I am an avid road cycler. This year I tried a few hiking trails and loved it. Great to meet everyone!

    My name is Rachel. I'm 32, a web developer (read very sedentary job) and I'm about 150lbs overweight. it snuck up on me and I'm done with it. I workout daily on my elliptical and at work (walk with a group). The hardest thing I have to overcome is a boyfriend who pushes me to overeat. I'm attempting to be a vegetarian, not for moral reasons, but because it makes me feel better and I believe it is healthier.

    Hi I'm Bridget and just moved to SLC in August 2013 from Wisconsin (originally from Vermont) to finish my dissertation while my fiance started his post-doc at the University. I'm 37 and enjoy running, yoga, ultimate frisbee, and rock climbing. Since I moved here I've started to try trail running and am training for my third half marathon (the SLC marathon in April) and hoping to do it in under 2 hours. We love all the hiking and outdoors activities we can do here and try to get out for a hike every weekend, even when there's snow. Sadly, the inversion has moved my half-marathon training indoors to the University gym, but at least there is a track and I'm not stuck on a treadmill!

    Wow... does anyone come here anymore??

    I'm Megan, I'm from up north - Ogden area. I've been off and on MFP and just recently started coming back every day. I have a 3 year old and work at a desk job. I workout twice a week, sometimes three if I am very lucky or make the time. I am going on a cruise in October and am making it a goal to be at the same weight I was (and in BETTER shape) than the previous cruise 4 years ago. I have 17 lbs to go.

    Anyway, let's get some action on here!

    Hey I'm Scott Perry and live in Sandy, Utah. So far I've lost 43 lbs and getting much stronger. I'm diabetic and switched to a Vegan diet about two months ago. Always looking for new activities and vegan friendly restaurants to try out.
