It's Friday and boy am I happy about that!
Looking forward to tackling some very hilly trails tomorrow and picking up my first Organic CSA. :-)
What are you all up to for the first weekend of Summer?0 -
Hi! I just recently started MFP and figured I should join a group to find support, encouragement, and be held accountable by someone other than myself, as well as celebrate others' success.
I'm 40 (41 next week - ack!) and trying to get back in shape. When I was a stay at home mom I had plenty of time to exercise, but since I've been back to work, 4 years now, I have gained the 50 lbs I once lost back. I work full time, am married, and have to very active kids. Right now about the only time I can exercise is early in the morning because of all my kids' evening activities. (Why does "me time" have to happen at 5:30 am?) Even then I don't feel I get in enought exercise. I also hope MFP will help me make better choices in what I eat. Just in a week I have found I think alot more about what I eat.
I would appreciate any tips, tricks, did-you-know advice about MFP and how it can be used for success. I look forward to getting to know people in the group.

Welcome Masi!
MFP is a great place to find encouragement, information and occasionally a good kick in the britches. :- )
I'm not sure I would relish a mandatory "5:30am Me Time" but I understand you take what you can get!
Good luck!

Well, I'm back in the swing of things! Finally!
Life kinda got in my way for a bit, but after walking my legs off in NYC for a few days with my niece and nephews, I was ready to hit it full speed! Then... the stomach flu hit ME full speed. LOL!
But... feeling much better today and ready to kick this weight thing once and for all!
I WILL NOT celebrate my birthday this year without being significantly lighter and more healthy!
Are you with me??? :- )0
