Hi all! I'm fairly new and just looking for some friends and support to keep me going! :)

I'm a full time mommy with a traveling hubby... love to work out, but everyday life can make that challenging! My weight constantly bounces around... whether I'm counting calories or not... wish I had a solution for that! LOL!

I'm looking to lose about 15-20 pounds... and eventually run a 5K. I've never been a runner, but have found a new love for it just a couple months ago... thanks to my puppy :)
