First Step in Owning It

I've been on MFP for about two months and have lost 12 pounds. :smile: But I haven't posted any "real" pictures of me until today as I was embarrassed of my appearance. But I took the plunge today and made the decision to own it and posted a picture of me taken on New Years Eve. I have about 65 more pounds to lose. I've got the diet portion of the equation down pretty well, be need help and motivation with the exercise portion. I want my muscles to look great once I've lost the body fat - not just have hanging skin over a skinny body.

Please friend request me and we'll motivate each other!
