Hi everyone, So I finally figured out how to put a topic in here. lol . I've been on MFP for almost 2 wks now. This truly is a great program. 6lbs down and counting. WOOHOOO :happy: . I could use some motivational friends though. I have two so far, Ive gotten to the point in my life where if I don't get this weight off , I'm not going to age very gracefully. Kinda scary. My mom is my inspiration, she's 71 and can run circles around me. The woman can do a few push-ups, I cant get myself to do one. How embarrassing,.:embarassed: Now don't be fooled by my profile pics. Those are a few years old. I'm using them for motivation. I have a crazy sense of humor. so you'll find that i tend to post a few jokes, all in good taste of course. laughing burns a few calories, right. :laugh:

    I'll be your friend. I came in here with my sister and my cousin and lost them both, but I did pick up KierstyPants. I love trying to help people stay motivated and it does get lonely. So if you want a new friend, just stop on by. Congrats on joining.
