looking for some new friends

Hi!
I'm Jenn and I have been on MFP since Jan. I log in everyday and I am looking for new friends and support. I have lost about 34 lbs so far and trying to lose another 20-ish. Wanna be my friend? lol

    Hello, I just started back on here. Not trying to lose anything just maintain and see the options of eating healthier.

    Hi! I joined awhile back but just now started tracking my eating and weight loss. What have you been doing to lose weight? Great Job by the way :)

    Hey Jenn!

    I joined a few days ago. I also need to lose a few pounds and get fit (I'm doing the "Insanity" workout so my energy level and motivation is really high). Feel free to add me! That also goes for anyone with similar goals to mine :)

    Thanks everyone! Yay for new friends!

    To answer what I have been doing to lose weight so far...I started South Beach in Jan. and used that as my guide until about a month ago. The higher protein/ lower healthy carb thing was working for me. Then my doctor said I should go gluten free. That's definitely a challenge that I am still working on! But I eat about 90% gluten free right now. I set my MFP to 30% protein, 30% fat, 40% carbs.

    In terms of exercise, I do cardio usually 4-5 days a week which consists of spin, zumba and hiking most of the time. I also strength train twice a week. I am looking to start lifting heavier weight though and have been researching a plan for that.
