Allons-y!

edited January 25 in Introduce Yourself
Hello, I'm new. I signed up like two days ago, and I've pretty much wasted my whole day today looking around the site and posting in forums and stuff. I'm 32, married, no kids, full time student (I took my 20s off school to be a hippie), and I live in the Seattle-ish area. I really just want to lose some weight and be happy with myself. I've always been 30-50 lbs overweight, and I'm just about done. I remember being like 14 and telling myself that someday I'll lose it and get healthy and feel beautiful. And here I am, decades later, in the same predicament. I had lost about 30 lbs a couple of years ago, but we've moved to a new area, and I'm in school online and not working. So I'm much more sedentary than I was when I was working at a preschool and moving all day long, and I've gained pretty much all of that weight back. I want to be happy with myself and my body, and I want it now while I'm still relatively young. I'm tired of wasting my life promising myself I'll do it tomorrow.

Anyway, looking for friends and support for the journey. I've already been reading people's success stories, and I'm very inspired!

Welcome!

    David Tennant used to be MY doctor but....Matt Smith has pushed him down to 2nd. I still love David to bits and he was an amazing doctor but Matt Smith has won my heart. And I thought I was never going to choose him over David. He sure proved me wrong.

    Feel free to add me - I love Doctor Who! :) Currently on Season 6 in Netflix - I'm running out of episodes! I like to hook up my iPhone to the elliptical at the Y and watch an episode while I work out.
