Hello, my name is gabe and im addicted to food. Im new to the site so I thought I might start here. Im 22 years old and I just graduated from embry riddle aeronautical university. That's where I put on all this extra weight. Anyway, I work for an ambulance company outside of philly and im always on the go. Its hard to eat healthy pulling 13+ hour shifts in a truck. No excuses though... play like a champion. Haha. I look forward to shedding some weight and meeting people with the same goals. Good luck everyone!

    Hello Gabe! I think that you have come to the right place for that particular goal sharing. It is what we are all about. Best of luck.
  • Hello Gabe,

    Good luck to you! I wish you the best.

    I totally understand about on the go, I used to dispatch Fire/EMS and police and I know that there are days where you can never stop to eat something at all and if you do it's usually not good for you.

    If you are interested, I have a way to get you in contact with a fantastic line of sports products that have on the go power bars that are really good for you! They also have weight loss stuff. Best of all it's 100% natural AND at wholesale prices

    Just let me know!

    Best of luck to you! I used to date 2 different guys who went to ERAU in Daytona...fun times. I love food and I am still finding that I get to eat great stuff as long as I pay attention to portions :) You can add me if you'd like!

    I'm new to this site and need to loose a LOT of weight. Several medical problems have occured because of my extreme weight and I am scared of becoming a diabetic since it runs in my family. I am trying to brave this weight loss and could use some support in my endeavor. I am a mother of 4 (three still at home) and a wife of an overweight husband in denial. One of my children is also overweight and in denial. If I had a magic wand I would make all of this excess weight (on all of us) disappear!

    Thanks for the welcome! As far as my goals go I need to loose about 30 lbs. I do strength training regularly. But I need to do more cardio. I guess ill just start by adding a jog into workout and by watching and recording what kinda crap goes into my mouth.

    P.s. it weird to meet people that have heard of embry riddle. Everyones always like embry wha?

    Thanks again for the welcome and good luck to all the other mewboes and veterans as well
