in Introduce Yourself
Hello everyone! I have been using MFP for a few weeks now, and have decided to venture into the community. I have found the tools available to be a great help in my weightloss journey-- I can only imagine what a wonderful support system will do. I have lost 12 lbs since starting 1-1-12, and I have about 58 lbs or so more to go! (Yikes....) I am a stay at home mama to an amazing 18 month old-- and I have a wonderfully supportive hubby. I am looking forward to getting to know some of you!

    Nice to meet you!!!!

    I'm 23, and just recently started this back up again. I have more time in my schedule to actually go to the gym and have more drive than I did before. I have only lost two pounds so far, and have about 50 to go!

    Hi im 23yrs old and currently 5'4 and 165 i need to lose at least 40 to be down to what i want to weigh , welcome to mfp! ive been on and off this website a cpl times i have a really tough time commiting to weight loss bc its so hard. Esp when me and my boyfriend go out basically every night. I have decided to stop drinking and focus on me bc the alcohol will always be there i currently started jillian michaels 30 day shred and just did day two and im dying but if this is what it takes to lose the weight and feel comfortable in my own skin then i have to do it ! add me we can keep each other going :)

    I had a baby in September and I went back to work about a month ago. I've lost 5 pounds and i've got 45 more to go. I'll see how I feel when I hit that first goal, then maybe go for more. =) Good luck everyone and congrats on what you've done so far.
