Hi, everyone! I've had MS for about 12 years (officially diagnosed almost 7 years ago) and have been on MFP for several years, but never thought to look for an MS group until tonight. Glad to find you all! :)

I'm a SAHM to two little boys. Took my body awhile to recover from twin pregnancy. I finally got to pre-pregnancy weight when my boys were 3.5. This past summer I decided to try to lose another 10 lbs and managed that but have struggled a little bit with maintaining my more ambitious goal weight during a very stressful, eventful second half of 2013. Back on track now and hoping to re-lose 5 or 6 more lbs, maintain, train for a 10K (if my body can handle it; fatigue has been plaguing me lately) and really work on strength training.

Look forward to getting to know you all!

    Hi Macchiato,
    I'm a SAHM to a 3 yr old and have had ms for 13 yrs. I've been on MFP for year now and have pretty good success. I started running again last year and have done a couple of 5ks, but I"m not sure I'm up for training for a 10k. I think I"m just going to keep trying to increase my speed! Nice to see you here.

    Agree with above, this is not a super active group but it's nice to add some people as friends and see what they are doing, also to get some opinions about experiences with various medications/treatments, especially stuff that is new. Glad to have you here, I will add you as a friend!
