Today, I start my very first day using MFP. In 6 months I will turn 45 yrs.old and I want to go into the next stage of my life looking and feeling more fabulous than ever ! I would love to lose about 25 lbs. and I believe I can do that in the next coming months. I work from home so having access to the kitchen has done me in the past few years, the weight has seemed to creep on slowly and now I am noticing that since I hit my mid-40's it doesn't come off as fast as it use to.

I have many a freinds and family who have several health issues due to either poor diet, obesity or lack of daily movement. I will not lead myself in that direction. I like to stay active as much I can. I take Zumba classes 2x a week & recently started (hula)Hooping to trim down my mid-section. I like anything that involves the outdoors..kayaking, canoeing, hiking ! I don't enjoy going to the gym at all, just not my thing. Finding something you love to do makes exercise even more fun !!

I only have one person who I can count on for support & encouragement. So, I am looking for a few friends to be in my corner, someone who encourages & motivates thru the ups & downs of this journey. I will do the same for you !!
