in Introduce Yourself
Hello everyone... in my 30s and have been in the 170-176 range for the past 2 years (eeerrrrgg) been active at my gym for 3 years (i think all i did was maintain the weight instead of actually losing it!) and am looking to eat better and find exercises that will actually help me lean up and build some muscle..not all crazy..just want to thin out a bit. I have lost a lil over 3 lbs since starting last week...Just wanted to introduce myself and say alot of you guys look great! Yes sorry ive been lurking the past week lol.

    Hi there
    I am quite new to MFP and have only been taking my fitness seriously since April this year. I am 31 and a stay at home I was 140 at the beginning of April and decided to actually make an effort to loose the 20 lb I had been hiding in my supper tight super big spandex pants! so I have been slogging it out to various Jillian Michaels dvds currently the 6 week 6 pack challenge and my own tailored butt lift challenge. I am kind of curious to see how fit I can get now so I am planning on saving for the P90X for September as I want to finish thinning out and build core and muscle strength as well as stamina. My " one day when I am finally fit" ambition is to run a half marathon so this is the start of my new life. Hope you get on well with your progress. Happy to be friended if you want fellow support. M
