Hey, I decided I might as well introduce myself and start to get all of you lovely people :D
I am 24, and after having to have emergency surgery last year I was scared into getting serious about my health
I used to be a runner, I've been slowly easing back into running every day and even got my sister to join a gym with me

my starting weight was 205, I would like to eventually get down to 160 which seems like a realistic goal

I am friendly and would love to know some people on here so please feel free to add me!

    Hi

    I'm Ashley, I'm 23. That is a very realistic goal. At my highest this year I was about 220-225lb(Feb.15, 2011), currently 168lbs. You can do it!
