Hi ladies. I just joined this site and I am excited about having other women to bounce questions off of. Although my boyfriend
(who also uses this site) is very supportive, I think it will be helpful to get a womans view on health and excersise.
My name is Erin and I am 23. I have been athletic for most of my life and then, like many, I found myself gaining weight due to my career and lack of routine workouts. After gaining almost 30 pounds (yikes) I decided it was enough. I have been working out on a regular basis for about three weeks and eating a pretty strict diet as well. I started to follow John's forums and realized what a really good motivator it was to see that other people are going through similar lifestyle changes.
I wish you all good luck with your goals!
