    Hi everybody.

    I am Malene or Mal for short. I'm from Denmark. So please don't pay too much attention to typos and grammar ;)

    I have a 3 year old son.

    Woke up one morning and realised I was fast on my way to hit my 3rd trimester weight. With out the added bonus of actually being pregnant. So here I am! Shedding those pounds.

    Hey hey! I've lived in Phoenix, Arizona for about 8-9 years now! I'm originally from Mpls, MN and my husband is from Chicago! :) We met at University of Iowa (me) and Iowa State (him) and I guess you can say we still totally have our Midwest Values! :D

    I saw this group and wanted to jump in! I am trying to shed the first 10 pounds pretty quickly! :D Once I get to 130-135 the weight slows down for me, so yeah- let's do this!
