in Introduce Yourself
Hi. I'm Kenisha. New York native, Maryland transplant, life-long dieter. Hit 35 this year and decided enough is enough. In 2 months I've lost 35lbs (of the 150) but this is always where I plateau or quit or reward myself with cake. So I'm here to intensify my efforts and get over the mental hump. I recently started Physician's Weight Loss which is helping me avoid the cake (being gluten free helps too.)

My short term goals is to lose another 30lbs by November 12 (Caribbean cruise!) but mostly I want to feel strong in my body. I really enjoy walking and doing the elliptical and swimming but my PWL counselor told me to start weight training, so now I'm doing PE@PF. Also super excited to find that this fat girl can run (for 3 minutes at a time!)

Anyway that's me. I love MFP and recommend it to everyone at my office. It's a great planning tool and helps keep me honest.

I know it's going to be a long haul so I'm looking for some Pals took take the journey with me.

K

    Hi Kenisha, you sound like you know what you want and you're going after it! I'm needing to lose 82 pounds. I'm at the end of my rope. I'm unhappy with the direction my life is heading and I know I need to change and make eating right and exercising a lifestyle. You can add me as a friend. I just started today, but I'm in it for the long haul.
