Hi! (just another newbie here)
I am 28 and have a chunk or two to lose. As a nursing student, I feel now more than ever that I must lose weight. I am off to a great start having exercised and cut calories significantly for the past week. My energy level is already on the up and up!
Given my background, I actually know quite a bit about health, nutrition and exercise. I am actually a certified personal trainer...though you could be too in a weekend as long as you know your anatomy and physiology.  Regardless, I am well educated in health and am disappointed that I have not done better for myself.
But, nevermind that and on to the future. I am lurking around the threads and am enjoying the readings as well as available tools. Off to peek around s'more. |

Congrats for taking control. It's impressive to work exercise and healthy eating into what must be a hectic schedule with nursing school--keep up the good work! |

Rep Power: 10 | | yea, i've been around fitness for a number of years (coaching baseball, a couple courses in biodynamics and team training, and building all these fitness sites ...), but i wish i had some more formal training to back most of what i've picked up ... i'm really a computer-geek at heart |
