I'm Lisa. Single mother of an 8 month old little girl. My complete inspiration to get in shape.
I joined MFP almost a month ago. Its amazing what this site can and has done for people.

I'm really looking forward to being healthy for the first time in over a decade. Seriously.
I've pretty much lived my life as unhealthy as possible. Sitting around for numerous hours a day, eating junkfood, playing video games/watching TV. NO MORE! I've been making myself get active for a LEAST a half an hour a day. I've been unemployed since I had my Ava, so its a challenge. Thankfully, she likes her stroller. :)
Thus far I'm pretty proud of myself, although I have a ton of hard work ahead of me.

I'm looking for support. Some nice motivation. Friends. :)
Please, feel free to add me. :)
