Hey Everyone,

My subject line is more or less poking fun at myself, which I know is half my problem right!

I am an adult figure skater and I have been skating my entire life. I have been trying to get to my goal weight for well.... my entire life! I got really close in college and stayed on track for about maybe two years after. Then I met a guy and it was all down hill from there! (That guy became my husband this past July) Somewhere between working full-time, adjusting to "adult" life and falling in love, I gained about 30 lbs. Over the past two years I have been losing and gaining the same 10 lbs over and over....over and over again.

I turn the big 30 this November and I want to feel fabulous! I'm hoping using Myfitnesspal will help me stick with and finally reach my goal!

I would love to have some "fitness pals" to help with the support.

    Agreed, I always feel that way on my dance team too.

    I'm about to get a lot of my team members on the site too so I feel more motivated than ever to stay with it :)

    I'm new too!! Maybe we can Learn together....

    I've been pretty good about my weight for a while, but, with age, come a few pounds, I'd like to loose 10-15 pounds that have been 'sticking' to me for some time. I've finally decided that I am in control here, not my body, or my hormones, or anything/anyone else..

    Just keep moving!!!
