in Introduce Yourself
Hello everyone,

I am really liking the program so far and I have already slimmed to pounds but I would like two know if there are a few other guys here. So far, I've only seen two in the whole site. I just want to make sure that the tips and guidelines here work for males as well.

    They really do work, but they key is just doing it. Once you make it a daily routine, you will notice the changes.

    We're here and the advice seen here is prettty solid. Occasionally there is a piece of bad advice, but it is pretty easy to spot. Anything that looks too easy ...is.

    So far, I'm only down 8 lbs, but the idea that I can "eat back" exercise calories is a good "crutch." If I get hungry, I know what I need to do first, to get some extra calories in.

    ***puts his hand up*** I probably wouldn't have made it as far as I have without keeping track of what I'm eating everyday. I'm all about easy, and this site is it. I started at the first of the year and I'm down almost 20.

    Of course there are more guys on here, to test the theory put up a pic of a young attractive nearly naked female as your profile pic and then go post in the forum that you are new and looking for friends...you will have 100 friend requests before the day is over.

    O Yea, Us guys are here. Congrats on deciding to change your life. Depending on your goals this can be a very useful tool to reach them. I am not trying to loss weight currently but am training for a Warrior Dash this year. So my goal may differ from others but none the less this website has help keep track of my progress.

    Program is working. Nothing like being accountable and seeing the numbers, good & bad, right there.

    There are more than a few helpful threads for new people (that I don't have the links for on my work computer). Look for 'in place of a roadmap' and a group titled 'Eat, Train, Progress'. Just don't cop an attitude with the people who developed the guide/group and you'll do well :D

    As a guy, make sure you eat way more protein than what is recommended.

    We're out here, but it's true that the site seems dominated by women. I guess tracking calories isn't "manly" or something. Not really sure why there seems such an imbalance.

    To answer your question, of course it works for guys too. Knowledge is power, and knowledge of what you're eating gives you power over your food instead of the other way around. It's that simple.

    Just joined when I got my Fitbit. I have a company provided health coach and it turns out she is on here too! Now I can't BS her or myself either. Lost 4 pounds in 3 weeks.

    Take care,

    I think most of the users are pretty quiet here. Male & Female. There just happens to be far more females, making the number active in the forums appear overwhelming.

    As you see here, there are plenty of us males here.

    Feel free to add me up.
