I just thought I should introduce myself and say hi to everyone . . .I must admit I've been reading threads for a couple weeks now and I finally decided today that I should register and join the discussions!

I'm on a ~20 lb weightloss journey that began about 2 weeks ago with calorie counting and some good old fashioned sweat. I'm about 4 lbs down and feeling better about myself but mannnnnnn is it difficult to keep up the motivation to get my butt to the gym!

In high school I was constantly active, playing up to 3 sports at a time (soccer, track, volleyball). . but now I'm approaching my senior year of college and have become a lot less active and a lot more keen on alcohol!! I have 20 more lbs of fat on my usually muscular frame to show for it

I'm looking forward to getting to know you wonderful ladies! Hope you're all having a great day!

Very nice to meet you Lunabella!
I know exactly what you mean about keeping up the motivation. I am fighting with that right now too. I always feel that once I've made myself go to the gym for a couple of weeks, it gets much easier.

P.S. My 8 year-old daughter is reading over my shoulder, and she says to tell you good luck too!
