    Hello All,

    I've been on and off here for 6 years now. Feel free to add me, I'm here to stay this time. I cleaned my inactive friends list up and am looking for active users. I have PCOS so I know that struggle! I have soda free for 24 days as of today! Lets talk. :)

    I love my mfp friends and while I've been in kind of rut I really appreciate the ones that stuck through it with me.

    I'm always open to new friends tho, I've got quite a bit to lose still (22 lbs down, 78 to go!). Pushing hard, just got myself some weights and began doing C25K (I hate running so much but it feels so good to be improving my mile times slowly!). I'm a positive motivator to my friends (even tho I'm kinda mean to myself, I find this works best for me tho!)

    Feel free to toss me a request or even just a message to say hi/vent/ask questions or whatever.

    I added you and anyone can feel free to add me! I've been on and off as well--lost 45 pounds a few years ago but then had a baby. I can't find the motivation as much this time around.

    Thanks! And yes, chocolate is my addiction. Plus, it's Friday and I'm going to celebrate with a glass of red wine. Oh yes. I've worked hard this week :)

    Good morning @DarthSamson, I just woke up too. Crazy, what a journey you've been on. I work at Universal Studios. But, I'm not an actor. I've seen the shows you've been in, impressive! I am going to learn how to lift, so I'm a nooby at it. It's great that you have the YMCA. I used to be a member. I'd like to join up again someone soon. It's so nice to meet you!
