in Introduce Yourself
Hi, my name is Nicole and I live in East County, San Diego. I have a lot of free time and I would like to find friends who would like workout partners to hike, walk, jog (a little), do yoga, surf (south of Del Mar), or go to the gym (24 hour fitness). I am 43 years old and about 15 pounds heavier than I would like to be. It is that darn gourmet cooking I like to do and the glass of wine with it! I have no age preference of workout partner that I seek, but I believe wholeheartedly that having a friend or trainer holds me more accountable than on my own.

Please friend me... I am very sincere about getting into better shape and making new friends, before and after the holidays.

Happy Health to you all!
Nicole

    Hi Nicole! I don't live in San Diego, but you can count on me for support and info on workouts (my specialty is runnning).

    I would love to hear more about that habit you call Gourmet Cooking. We frequently share recipes amongst MFP friends.

    Welcome!

    Welcome !

    I don't live in your area but I wasn't to let you know that there is an option to search for people who do live in your area. I think it's "find members" under the "community" tab.

    I wish you the best.

    today I went 1,350 calories over my limit and MFP says that in 5 weeks if I keep eating like this I will gain 9 pounds... That would be very bad for me... I am glad to know that I need to keep better track of what I eat and how active I am.

    I live fairly close to you!!! I'm new to the area so I am still trying to figure out where everything is. I sent you a friend request!
