in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone! I've been doing MFP on and off for a while now. I've finally gotten back into it full force since the new year. I think i'm ready to add some friends to motivate me and who i can motivate back!

A little about me: I'm 22. Full time worker/part time student. Currently doing insanity to get my butt in shape, and tracking all my food, even the bad bingey stuff- which is a big step for me!

Let me know a little about you, and add me! (I posted this in motivation, but this is probably a better place for it.. sorry for the double post!)

    I've recently gone though some life changes and I'm mentally ready to get back on this bandwagon. I'm 25 and teach 5th grade. It's hard to find the time and motivation sometimes to come home and workout and cook dinner after working all day!
    If anybody would like another face to their news feed, I'd love the friendly support!

    I totally agree that after a long day of work it is very hard to get into a workout and cooking. I've started meal prepping a few meals on sundays so i'll feel a little less stressed and a little more likely to work out when i get home.

    I've found that meal planning my week helps me to stay on track. It's harder for me to justify swinging through the drive through when I know I have something thawing in the fridge to cook. I try to make my breakfast for the week ahead of time - something I can pop in the microwave and eat during my commute, or in my classroom before the kiddos arrive. I'm so not a morning person and cooking just... isn't an option during the week. lol

    Hey there. I never been part of any type of community like this before, but I have been using the app on my phone, so, why not? I just turned 32, 6 feet tall and weigh 244 pounds, so I'm a larger fellow... I want to get down to 190 or so. So, here's to helping eachother out.

    Hey, I'm 23 years old, married with two kids & currently a stay at home mommy. I just joined MFP today because I finally decided I need to get off my butt & lose weight because my self-esteem is super low. I'm also keeping track of ALL the food I eat so I can see how bad I eat & hopefully cut back on some things. I've been doing Zumba for 3 days now & it is kicking my butt. I'm hoping I can get different exercise routines so I don't get bored with the same thing all the time. You've added me already, thank you!! Can't wait to get to my goal! Good luck to everyone on here... keep up the hard work!!
