Anyone else like me? I'm a 33 year old mom of two boys and have not taken care of my body for the last 6 years - I need to make changes and loose weight or I know I'm not headed down a good path. I'm looking for support and advice. I have done this before with the help of a great friend who had me looking and feeling the best I ever felt. I was running 5+ mile and strength training 5-6 days a week. It became a part of who I was. Then I got married and went on my honeymoon LOL. I've started doing Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred/Shred It with Weights and completed my second work out this morning. It's tough and I want to be able to do more than I can but I know it's going to take time.

    I'm 25 and 220 lbs, and I want to loose 70 pounds. I'm also planning on running my first 5K in July, for the ColorMeRad run in my city. I joined MFP a while ago but never been able to reach my goal, I kept quitting for bad reasons. I want to make this year THE year! You can add me, it's always good to get support :)
