Hello From Michigan!

Hello friends!

I am new to the site. I am fresh out of college...well maybe not fresh (Aug 07)...and wanting to get back into shape. College ruined me!

I am married...for the last 1.5 years. That surely didn't help my figure either. They always say that you gain weight when you are the happiest with your life. So anyways...slowly over the last 1.5 years I have gained a precious 30 lbs. I am ready to let it go...cut the cord if you will.

Always looking for more friends...so I am hoping to meet more people working on their health...like me!

    Welcome! I know that you're gonna love this site. It makes everything so easy to keep up with, and the people are really friendly. This is my second week, and I lost 2 pounds. My goal is to lose at least 1.5 per week.

    I'll be looking for your posts.

    Welcome...I'm from Michigan too, and boy am I glad that we are finally getting into some warmer weather. I'm in the Saginaw area. Good to have you!
  • It sounds like college is bad for one's figure. I graduate in December and have put on about 25-30 lbs. since I started. I am having some luck on here and love the food journals and message boards. Good luck!
  • Hey there! I'm also from Michigan, down in the Detroit area here. Best of luck with everything! I love this site!
