Dear potential friend,
I use to be an intervention away from being this guy. Seriously. I gained weight so quickly last spring after indulging morning, noon and night, in various cartons of ice cream. If I were to have received a paper cut, the cream running through my veins would have clotted more quickly than anything else.
I started working out in November but needed to focus on the consumption component. This website is brilliant(!) and after joining yesterday, I would like to not simply be a voyeur, but have an active community of friends to tumble around with while I lose about 80 pounds. Doesn't matter if your age/weight/story is different than mine. If you are up for it, let's roll.

I'd love to have some friends on here. I dont have any yet and I looked at my message box and it said I didn't have any.....nothing like having no friends to bring you down HAHAHA.
I'm here if you need motivation. I have lots of good ideas, but lack the willpower to see them through. Hoping I can help you and you can help me.0 -
