edited October 2024 in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone, nice to meet ya'll! I've been "lurking" a bit so I decided it's time to properly introduce myself. My name is Laura and I'm from Houston. I'm 26, I have a pretty amazing 3 year-old named Isabella and I've been married almost 4 years now....and...I'm a chubster :(

I was pretty thin my whole life, but after going through a pregnancy and deployment at the same time, an emergency c-section, and an 8lb 7oz baby....to add that I've become a lazy veggie....and here I am...short and stout :(

No more! I really am trying to make an effort to get back in shape and I'm really glad to have found this place...I look forward to getting to know ya'll :)

    I'm a Texan, too, just a little further north than you in beautiful Montgomery! Good luck! Yay, Texas !! Tired of the heat and drought but at least we'll survive the economy!

    Also living in Texas, so a wave from a somewhat close by Texas standards neighbor of the state. Will send a friend request your way.
