Okay, let's try this again. I had my post all typed and ready to go and then the forum logged me out.

I know that's a corny title, but it's a homage to Tamilee Webb.

I was really inspired by jenofthemountain's OPT thread and am now on Day 2 of the program.

I've been a long time lurker and started NROLW back in January, when I was approached by a CrossFit trainer to try that way of fitness and have never looked back.

My name is Shelly and I'll be 43 on Sunday. Long story short, I lost 30 pounds on WW when I was 21 and got down to a size 3-5 (probably a zero in today's vanity sizing...lol). Kept that off for well over 10 years including 2 pregnancies. Fast forward another 10 years and I'm pretty much where I was when I was 21, only way more fit.

Since we're not going 'home' (all my family is in CA), I decided now is as good as of time as any to get the weight off. That, and the fact that I have a Dr. appointment in February and I'd really like that scale to say something different for once!!!

So...this journal is to keep me in check and I hope y'all will too.
