Hi. My name is Ryan, and I just discovered this site and it's awesome community.

I'm here because I have decided to start keeping track of my diet, exercising more, and ultimately losing some extra weight that I've gained over the past few years.

My story goes like this: I used to be a competitive tennis player. I played almost every day throughout high school and my first year of college. After quitting the college team to focus on improving my grades, my athletic endeavors slowly came to a halt. However, I kept eating like I played tennis every day. After a few years of this, you can imagine how that turned out. While I can't say that anyone has publicly called me overweight, I know that I am. I hope that with the help of this site and the friends I will inevitably make, I'll be able to reach my fitness goals.

Thanks to anyone who took the time to read through this, and good luck to you all!

Ryan

    Hi Ryan!
    I'm new too as of a week ago - I'm addicted to this site. I've spend a lot of time going through the forums and getting to know the site. There is a TON of information and support on here. I really like being able to view other peoples diaries - it gives me lots of ideas for healthy food choices.

    Good luck with your journey!
