in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone :)

I've just joined MFP, looking to make new friends, get into shape, lose 38lbs, and get a lot fitter. I'm looking forward to this - the time is right! :)

Mainly, I'm working on eating healthier, but I also want to throw in some cardio (goal is 30 mins a day for now) and weight training (I have 5lb weights, but they feel like 50lbs at the moment!).

Looking for friends to support and share the journey along the way. I'm big on reading (if reading burned calories I'd be looking to gain weight by now), and I like writing too, and I live in a very isolated place with poor internet connection, but I shall do my very best to be logging daily (and if I don't, you can blame bad weather!).

So add me if you'd like some support, and if you'd like to see this stranger FINALLY get to her goal weight.:flowerforyou:

    LOL! It makes me very sad as well when I get the "No Network" message. Can be ten feet of snow and it manages, but rain, mist, or humidity and it just doesn't want to know! I wouldn't mind, but I can see the mast from this window :)

    Hi, I recently joined and am finding it very helpful. I am trying to loose my last 20 pounds from a huge weightloss. I am here anytime it gets rough!!!

    Thanks - this is my last 38lbs - I should have said in my first post: I lost a lot of weight, but it started creeping back, so this is my "last hit" as it were :)

    Welcome! I've been on MFP for a few months now, but am looking to get more serious about logging my food every day and exercising more. I have gotten down to a healthy weight a few times in the past, but it creeps back on so easily. I'm looking for some friends to help keep me motivated and to give support to along the way.
