Army wife in Idaho

Hi everyone,

I actually found this site via the droid market for an app on my phone. I really like this site, and like it even more that it is free! Anyway, I'm an Army wife of almost 9 years, and have 2 kids - 7 years old and 2 years old. I am a stay at home mom and college student.

I talked to an owner of a local gym and he wants to work with my financial issues so I can join his gym, so told him that I can pay for a whole year but I have to wait for my student loan money to come in at the end of the month. So he said that I can start working out now, and he will accept payment on Feb 1st, and he waived the enrollment fee! So I officially signed up last night, and my first workout is later this afternoon.

I'm from New Mexico, living in North Idaho, and I love cooking! I host a cooking group on facebook, which I really need to start posting healthy recipes on it now, called "Cooking With Liz." I have around 60 pounds to lose, and I think I can do it by October.

Nice to see everyone on here! Keep up the good work! And if you fall off the wagon, you can get back on it tomorrow!

-Liz
