Old man walking

Hi, all. I'm Rick in Indianapolis. I'm 80 pounds into my journey with 60 to go to goal. I'm starting to stall out a bit, read about My Fitness Pal and thought being around like minded people could be of great help.

I'm a very social guy, and the semi isolation of the pandemic has been rough. There area where I live is a bit of a hotspot, so a lot of socializing isn't happening (nor a good idea) right now.

I enjoy bicycling, walking, Geocaching, most outdoor activities.

Anyway, if anyone would care to send a friend request, I'd be grateful.

Welcome, Rick!

I joined MFP a few years back under similar circumstances, when I'd been losing weight for a while but decided I needed to log to help keep the process moving as I wanted, except I was then at around 30 pounds of what turned out to be a 50ish pound loss, that I've now maintained for 4+ years.

I'm an on-water rower (who's stuck on the rowing machine at home now instead), and also not a mere youth (I'm 64).

Besides your outdoor activities, I see a guy playing a banjo in your photo - is that you? There's a banjo in my house, but I'm a recent late-start beginner, so I'm not playing it in front of a mike like that, probably never. 😆

Welcome to MFP - hope you have a lot of success here!
