Hi all!

My name is Destany and I am 20 years old. I started using MFP a while back and was doing pretty good keeping track of what I was eating and I even started going to the gym at my neighborhood clubhouse. I had lost a total of 15 pounds. But then I started slacking like I always seem to do and stop using MFP all together and gained 5 of that back. Sad, I know ): (I am 165 now.)

My ultimate goal is to lose some body fat and gain some lean muscle and get down into the 140-145 weight range (and stay there!) by my 21st birthday in June (hence "fitbytwentyone"). I am proud to say that I recently became a member of my local LA Fitness club and I have a personal trainer to help me.

Today is a new day. And I'm taking advantage of it. With the help of some new friends (and maybe some old ones) and my trainer, I know I can reach my goals.

So what do you say? Wanna be my friend? (:

Love,
Destany
