in Introduce Yourself
Hi all,

I've been on and off committed to this program (mostly off). It's already helped a ton. My 30th birthday is in one month, and I move to Boston soon thereafter. I'm beginning an exciting new career, and hope to complement my work life with a healthy home life filled with nutrition and exercise. Please introduce yourselves. It would be great to meet new people!

    I turned 30 last week and while I hoped to get in shape BEFORE then, I failed. But I moved to Austin right before and I've found a trainer and I'm on my way to being fit in a town that is FULL of fit people.

    Feel free to add me and good luck!

    I'll be 25 in September, but I look 30, so I'm thinking it's basically the same thing. I would like to be in better shape for 30 though, because that will pretty much be the end of my existence and I need to get life settled before then.

    I turned 30 in April and had high expectations of being in shape before then, but then I fell off the wagon. Please feel free to add me. I am trying to get re-focused AGAIN!

    I'll be 30 in just over a year (turning 29 next month) and I want to hit my goal weight by my 30th b-day as well...partially because of the whole BIG 3-0, and partially because I need to order my wedding dress around that time too. Here's to 30! :drinker:

    I'll be 30 in November, I'm working hard for a fitter healthier me. I'm going to spend my 30's treating myself much better than my 20's. :-)

    I am also trying to get into the best shape of my life. I am very serious about health and fitness. I am always looking for friends with lots of motivation. I am 24 and I have gotten sick of drooling over the fitness models in magazine. I decided...why can't I be one? I took the summer off from work and I am dedicating my time to rediscovering myself.

    Feel free to add me if you are a motivator and want to be motivated in return. I don't claim to be an expert at this, but I am dedicated =)

    I think there are a lot of us '82 babies on here that are hoping to get in shape before the big 3-0! Good luck with your weight loss over the next month and in your new career in Boston! Feel free to add if you're looking for friends your age.

    Just turned 30 a couple weeks ago - it's amazing how time flies! I didn't get quite as far as I would have liked, but I've made some great progress. Hoping to kick it up a notch and reach my UGW by the end of this year. Can always use more like-minded friends!

    I turned 30 on May 29th. The weekend before I went skydiving to celebrate. Now I'm off work for the summer (I'm a high school counselor) and I've decided that this is the summer of me and doing things to better my physical and mental health.

    And I agree with the person that said Boston is great. I lived on Cape Cod for a few years. Love it up there!
    Cheers.
