    Hi Everyone! I'm Toni and live close to Johnstown, PA (Flood City). I need to lose a little over 100 lbs. I just quit smoking and am trying to add some different things into my schedule to create better health-conscious habits. I'm glad to be involved with a group of people who are on the same journey as me. Thanks for starting this group & feel free to add me on your friend list here :=)

    Hey, I'm LB. I live in southern NJ. I am happily married with 3 kids. There is not a lot to do in South Jersey, but I have always been a homebody even when I lived near NYC. I am switching to a vegetarian diet because I love animals and I have given up a lot of dairy because I am lactose intolerant. My husband says I am anti-social and he laughs because my best friend is just as bad as I am. I love trying new things whether it be food or hobbies. Well, I wish I could say something cool and funny to end this intro so that you would all want to be my friend, but you will just have to trust me when I tell you that I am awesome person to hang out with and talk to.

    43 year old guy from the Bronx. Lost 65 lbs 13 years ago and kept it off for about 11. Weight started creeping back on with 2 kids and the midnight shift. Looking to lose about 35 lbs and start doing some 5Ks in Central Park again. Did the NYC Half and the Westchester Half when I was "in shape".

    If anyone is into photography I highly recommend doing a NYC city photo tour. I did an afternoon and night tour last week and managed to increase my step count quite a bit. I track how many steps I take with my fitbit tracker. Great little device btw.

    The company I used for the photo tour is called citifari. Nice guys and very knowledgable.

    Hi, I'm Jennifer (Jeni) from west-central Vermont, Rutland to be exact. I've lived here for 56 years and love it, although sometimes I tink it's really boring. The weekend of August 11-12, though, will be an event called "Art in the Park" where many artisans will be showing and selling their crafts. It's a wonderful event and a great opportunity to buy Christmas gifts and/or items for yourself. I always look forward to this weekend!

    I am in Northeast MA, Merrimack Valley area. I am looking to lose about 40 to 50 lbs. Anyone with any tips, tricks or good ideas on how to do this safely and effectively, please msg me. I go to the local gym about 3 days a week fro cardio and a little weigh lifting. I also visit with a personal trainer 1 day a week. I have been stuck at my current weight with little up/down spikes here or there. I just can not seem to get the weight off and stay off. I would like to do this weight lose for my overall health and well being.

    I am new to this idea of involving others (strangers) in my attempt to lose some weight.

    and oh yeah, HI! ;-)
