Hey, I am a (newly) 30 year old female and used to LOVE working out and running, I got a divorce a few years back and a year later met a wonderful man. With the new happiness and comfort came weight. Over 2 years I put on 20 pounds and now I am working to get it back off. I recently went to a Weight Loss doctor and I have lost 6 pounds. I just want to get back into my old jeans! I always seem to do a lot better with a support group and am hoping to find that in YOU!!! :-)

    Feel free to add me!

    ETA: I do a little bit of everything...play soccer, swim, play volleyball, Turbo Fire, yoga, Zumba. I hear you on the "happy fat" gain! I gained about 15 pounds when I met my hubby and got pregnant before I could lose it! :)
