Just getting started, and just saying "hello!"

Hooray! I love questions to answer.

I've been at this for about a week now and I think I am getting into the groove! So, this is me starting out--hello!

1. Calorie Count Name (user id): Geans
2. Name you prefer to be called in discussions: Geans is fine with me.
3. Age & Sex: 29- Female
4. General Location: Washington, D.C.
5. Married? Single? Single
6. Kids? Furbabies? No kids, and one beagle with a runny nose problem.
7. Favorite color? Red
8. Favorite movie? The Big Lebowski
9. Hobbies? Blogging and Travel, and travel blogging!
10. Favorite Snack? Wheat thins
11. Favorite Beverage? Beer!
12. Biggest Obstacle to Getting Healthy? I live with my family, who are all huge eaters. There is tempting food on just about every surface. Oh, and I also work in a food-happy office.
13. Weight/Fitness Goal? I would like to have more energy and go down a few sizes...nothing too drastic.
14. Least Favorite Household Chore? Bathroom cleaning!
15. How did you find Calorie Count? Good old Google. I was curious about how many calories was in something at this one restaurant...and one thing led to another!
16. Anything Else You'd Like To Share? I can't get over how many people on here seem so rational and literate. Unusual for something 'free' with forums online. I'm addicted to my MySpace and Facebook, so I figure that getting into a health-based web community might be the thing that finally works for me!

Geans,

Good luck & welcome! I'm new as well & just getting into the forum thing. I should have put beer for my favorite beverage (what was I thinking) too. I think the way this site works as far as recording what you eat will be a good help to everyone.

 Peace! udamann88 (Tim)
