I've been laid off since December 2010. My husband works out of town and is gone for 9 days and home for 3. It's hard being home alone while he's gone. I just started walking on my treadmill and have been under my calorie goal most days. I'm looking for some friends to motivate and cheer each other on.

    I'll be your friend :o) and I work as a personal trainer!
  • Renee,
    sounds tough...walking on the treadmill is great. I am just signing up tonight and think I will find the calorie limit tough to do. I run 3 miles about 4 times a week, but love to eat and want to lose about 10 pounds. I'm not sure I have it in me to exercise more, but I may have to if I can't cut the calories.

    Hi Renee - I'll add you as a friend! I love the treadmill...I wish I was able to use mine more.
  • Hey Renee, I have been laid off for almost a year now. I joined MFP last week. I have always been overweight, and I have gained 50 more pounds since I was laid off and have been in a major funk. The last few days have been much better. I'm eating healthier, making myself get up and get dressed every day.

    I'm here to cheer you on! I'll send you a friend request.
