in Introduce Yourself
Hey there, I have been using this site for a couple months now and love it. However I never really realized there was a social side to it and I decided to give it a try!
I live in Alberta, Canada. I hit gym hard and enjoy to do so :) I also just recently got a HRM and fitbit combo that I am loving to death.
Anyway I am not really sure what to say here, but I am looking for friends so add me up if you want!

    Welcome to the dark, er, social side. Please keep your arms and legs inside the ride at all times and please don't get your panties in a wad when someone offends you. Cuz someone will, sooner or later.

    You live in Alberta!? My family was going to move there about 7 years ago, but we decided to move to the States instead. That's pretty cool though! and yeah, I never did use the social side until recently too :)

    I also have used MFP for awhile (since January) and didn't know about the social part until a month or so ago. Then I just started reading. Not really a joiner but I would love to explore this side and make new friends and give/receive encouragement. Down 51 pounds so far and about 1/2 way there.

    Beat me to it LOL

    I find the social aspect, especially the friends news feed, to be very motivational.
