in Introduce Yourself
Hi all,

Am just starting MFP. and am starting the Insanity workouts tonight with my fitness test. I am a 28 year old female, 5'4 and 155 lbs, about a size 10/M-L.

Me and my husband have been struggling to eat healthy and control portion size for about a year now, (lost 10 lbs, then put 5 back on)

I am hoping that between this website and the insanity workouts i can get myself back in shape and feeling great about myself!!!:smile:

Look forward to hearing from you,

Heather

    Thanks everyone for the encouragement!!!!

    had to delay my fitness test to today as my lower back was a bit stiff yesterday and didn't want to start off not able to do my best. but after a bit of ice and heat, i feel ready to go again.

    ( I just recently started walking my two dogs again on a regular basis, Hour+ each day, and i ahve an old sports injury that acts up whenever i take up new activity, just slight muscle spasms.)

    Fitness test this afternoon after work...can't wait!!!!

    Your stats are very much like mine: I'm 5'3.5", just turned 29 (on Wed actually), I was 156 and size 10 when I started Insanity almost 2 months ago (yep, I'm almost done!!). How did your fitness test go? Feel free to add me, I'll be an Insanity cheerleader for ya! :)

    My wife and I just completed the first week of month one today. Nothing better than Insanity. Plus we are adding in 3+ mile runs when we can.

    Pure Cardio is my favorite workout even though people think I am crazy for saying that. Nothing better than leaving it all on the floor and having all the sweat to prove it.
