Hello all, been using this app for some time. Used to use Lose it but found the food choices here much better.
Looking forward to reading your successes.

Thanks for the invite

I'm not a runner either and with my bad knee it's hard to much walking, but I do use my execerise bike 3 times a week.

Howdy Y'all!

Hi there! Thanks for inviting me. I am looking forward to browsing around and learning some new things.

Thanks for inviting me into this group...not able to do any runs...having meniscus tear repair tomorrow, but hope to be back in the walking and workout routine soon.

Thanks for inviting me! I was all alone

thank you for the invite!

Thanks for the Invite. I am a walker not a jogger yet. I am excited and this is my first group also, feel free to add me as a friend if anyone like. The more encourgement the better. Thanks

THanks for the invite. I am a 25 y/o female who gets on and off the wagon more than some people change their underwear! I thought getting engaged it would do it for me, but nope not yet. So now my wedding is August 24 and it is time to get my butt in gear so I won't hate myself forever.

I am hoping to get lots of support from local people. I actually live in Central Indiana. Anybody else living in the Southeast Side of Indianapolis?

Good luck everyone and please support me as today I make the decision to do my complete lifestyle change.. not temporarily but FOREVER!

Well, hello everyone! Thanks for the invite, Cool.

I had been only using the Android app to keep track of my food and weight until recently. Looks like the website has a lot more information (like I had been taking in waaaay too much sodium!) and it's a lot easier to read the forums on here! I had no idea there were so many. It's great to read all of your posts and that provides a definite boost to my motivation. It's also nice to hear about different events to take part in.

So, my girlfriend and I live in Franklin and we both work in Indy. I'm 42 and did weigh over 200. I am tired of my pants being too tight and I don't really want to buy any larger sizes, so I needed to lose weight. My girlfriend, Julie, has been a tremendous help - finding ways to change my diet, convincing me to join a gym with her, etc. I'm already feeling better and the pants aren't as tight. Yay!

I used to weigh only 145 and was a vegetarian. When I turned 30, my metabolism crashed and my work is mostly at a computer, sedentary. I ran track in high school and was into tae kwon do in college. But I never got that 'runner's high' or rush from working out. I only did it to hang out with friends - then we all grew up and moved our separate ways.

My problem now, besides not really enjoying exercise, is that I just love food. I love to eat. I'm hungry all the time. I'm a connoisseur of Chinese buffets, meatloaf, pizza, cheeseburgers, and candy. I do, however, love veggies and fruits and there is almost nothing I won't eat. I'm working through getting used to my new diet.

Anyway, thanks for reading my ramble. I’m looking forward to making progress with you all!

Good luck!

Thanks for the invite!

Personally, since Spring and Summer is around the corner (I know it doesn't feel like it with all this snow, but we have to keep the faith it will arrive), I would love to get a sand volleyball team together. Team would be 4 people and we could play in a real league (for beginners), but if more want to do it we could play games against each other and maybe form our own little unnofficial league. If you've never played sand volleyball it is SUPER fun and you work off a lot of calories. It is a workout in and of itself, while still being a blast. Ever just practicing it will get you sweating and laughing. I'd love love love if people wanted to do this.

I could be interested! Warning, Im terrible at volleyball but still enjoy it. What side of town is the league on and what would be the time commitment?

I'm thinking we could get together once or twice a week, just to have some scrimages or practices, maybe an hour give or take. We'd have to figure out what day is best for everyone interested before figuring out a time commitment. But I think this would be a blast. It's a great way to burn calories and have some fun at the same time.
