    What an awesome place to chose to live healthy- all the lovely trails, the nice roads, and the lakes... Yep, I LOVE Colorado! I lived there for 4 years.... Feel free to add me if you like- I'm currently training for a half marathon (never thought I'd want to at my high weight), and have lost 20 of a total of 47 punds through here. Best of luck to you on your journey!!

    Hi There!

    I'm 24 and looking to lose about 60 lbs. I started on MFP last week. You can add me as a friend if you'd like. After reading through numerous blogs the one thing that I have reinforced over and over to myself is that this process will take time. Take it day by day.

    Good Luck!!!

    I think I have you all beat...27 years old with 170ish lbs to lose. I have found lots of friendly people here to help keep me motivated and lose 20lbs already. I always like new friends.
