My name is Erica Marshall. I live in Aurora, IL. Around 2000 I weighed 150lbs and felt miserable, so I dieted and got down to my college weight of 125. I felt great, but couldn't keep it up and ended up at 130, which I was able to maintain for awhile. Then it crept up to 135 and I was still mostly ok with myself at that weight, but after a couple recent vacations I'm up to 140lbs now, and that's not cool at all. I'm back on a diet with a goal of 130lbs for now.

My husband is not active at all, so if anyone reads this who's from the Western Suburbs, contact me -if we get along maybe we can find a way to burn calories together! I'm into photography, hiking, biking (more interest in off-road than on, but...), rollerblading, I don't know how to play but tennis and racketball look fun. I'm not into team sports at all though.
