60 to go
vibral
Posts: 13
I joined myfitnesspal this week in hopes of getting that last "push" towards my goal. Monday I hit my 100 pound goal, but I've still got another 60 to go. It took me 18 months to lose that first 100 and I really don't want to take another 18 months. I'm really hoping that by keeping track online, (and maybe being held accountable) I won't have as many plataeus or set backs as I did with this first half of my journey.
A little about me...I'm 36 (I really hate typing that). Prior service, married to an active duty soldier. I have 3 kids, 2 of which are preteens, one is our "wow, we're starting all over???" baby and is going to be 3 in just a few weeks. We're currently stationed in Tx (and yes, it is as hot and as miserable as it seems on the news). I have a bad knee, from my army days, and am currently in physical therapy while the army tries to decide whether to do surgery or not. That's another worry, what kind of setback would that cause?? As far as exercise, I try to walk daily, and then I do body combat 3 times a week, body pump 3 times a week, and try to fit in the elliptical and treadmill when I can.
So that's me in a nutshell. I've got the usual interests (reading, crafts, not cleaning up after my 3 year old), but I'll save all that. So hi!!
