33 years old newbie

Hello!
I joined the website yesterday, but I am still looking around to understand how everything works here.
My name is Chiara, I live in Italy (but in the middle of nowhere, not in one of those nice cities everybody knows), I am vegetarian and work in the video games industry, which means I spend most of my time sitting in front of a computer, or sitting on a train when I commute.

I am trying to get back into shape, mainly because I have a very high heart rate and it goes up when I don't exercise and don't eat well, so I decided to subscribe here.

I like books, heavy metal, video games, animals and art.

I live with my boyfriend and three rescued cats - one of them is blind, but so sweet.

I am looking for friends here, so I won't be alone in my fight to get back into shape - feel free to add me if you want!

    Hey there. My name is Maria. I am 32 years old and from NY (USA). I am just starting out also. It has been hard for me. I just started dieting 2 weeks ago. I have lost a total of 9 lbs. I wish it were more, but I don't really have a support system. I am always looking for new friends to share with and talk to. Good times or bad times, I will be here. If you wanna be friends here, need a support buddy, or just wanna vent to someone, I am the one for you. Have a great day.

    Welcome to MFP Melyanna... I used to do Gaming Research long time back, I am a veggi too.
  • HI! I joined back in January, but started fresh this week so I'm going to consider myself a newbie as well. I'm also a vegetarian and have three rescue fur babies (1 cat & 2 dogs). I live with my boyfriend in North Carolina and we both help to raise his five year old daughter. I'll send you a friend request, but I just wanted to say hi first :)
