As it seems many of the Members on this forum are women, But I as a male need no want to lose weight somewhere in the Range of 40 lbs. I will need support :ohwell: and this is the first time I really use a forum. I'm losing the weight primarily for myself (self confidence and liking myself and health)secondarily I want to do it for my wife. It may sound cheesy but I want the spark back in her eyes when she looks at me.

So any support that can be given will be highly appreciated.:smile:

    Good for you! My husband needs to lose weight also. Cuting back on red meat and fried food will help. Walking every day is a nice start. Good Luck!

    Good for you. We're all here for support. :wink:
  • Good luck too you! We're here for support!
  • Good for you. I have lost 39.4 in 20 weeks and still have 14 to go. I have lost 21 on MFP. M wife has really noticed. I can see that twinkle in her eye. It is a trip. You can do it man. It just takes a little hard work. Eat right and exercise and you will do just fine., It is well worth it, take it from me, you will like the benifits......LOL
  • I am a man, so I will not tell you to cut back on red meat.

    That would be heresy.

    Just burn it off when you do eat it.
  • Thank you all so much for your words.:embarassed: They will inspire me to move forward
