Hey everyone! I'm a 37 year old mum of 2 beautiful kids looking to get healthy. I signed up for MFP ages ago but have just started to take it seriously. In January, Hubs and I invested in an elliptical machine so we both can get moving more. For me, getting to the gym with two kids under 5 is a challenge, so we opted for something we can do at home. I've started to see my daily sessions on the elliptical as a little "get-away". I find myself looking forward to exercising. WHAT HAS BECOME OF ME?!?! haha

My goal is to be and feel healthy. I'm not sure where the scale will settle, but a loose goal I have is around 165lbs. I'm 5'10' and weigh 202.5. I want to be able to sustain it. I want to be able to eat a normal, healthy diet and work our regularly, but not have to work my butt off and starve myself to maintain. I made that mistake in my 20's when I dieted my way down to 132Lbs. I think 165lbs(or around there) may be a more realistic # for me.

I'm looking to connect with others who are like me, not necessarily looking to get skinny or ripped.

Let's get healthier together!
