RE-introduction... Hello Everyone!! :-)

Options
hey guys... so this is pretty much a RE-introduction... i joined towards the end of '08 and i was working on my new year's resolution early. after years of struggling with my weight and going up and down with inconsistent work, i finally thought i was ready to dive into a new and healthy lifestyle. i was successful for about a month, going to the gym on a daily basis, sticking to a healthy 1200 calorie diet. i ended up losing 12 pounds towards the end of the 4 weeks. unfortunately, i got caught up with my last semester at school. i had night classes and end of the year parties and social events and whatnot, and all of my hard work went down the drain. i just graduated this past saturday, and i'm ready to do this for real. i know i can, and i'm definitely determined. i have moved out of the dorms and my schedule is back to normal, so i have no outside influences, only my own determination to drive me forward. so... i'm back on MFP, because it was such a great support system for me as well as a place for me to track my success and keep my cal. intake organized. i am so excited to be back and give as well as receive any support needed. this is a great community and im' so glad to be back and be a part of it... let's get this started!!!!
