I've been using the site for about 4 months now and really surprised myself at how easy those first pounds came off! I haven't really used the social side yet, mainly because I have a hard time hearing what people actually think of me - I'm my own worst critic! I've given myself a conservative weight loss goal, but I'm pretty sure that if I reach it I will want to push myself for more - and I''ve also set myself a running goal. I'd like to be able to run a competitive 5k before the year is up. So I'd like to be able to find some friends who are willing to keep me focused and hopefully I can help them out too!
