in Introduce Yourself
Im not sure how I came across this site but by the looks of it I am SO glad I did! Ive never actually posted on a message board.. but figured.. Im making a change! So why not!? Ive been going to the gym since early November and am actually really enjoying it.. Ive even felt guilty these last couple of days for not going ( if you dont know.. the ENTIRE city of Atlanta is shutdown because of snow and ice)! Ive lost 14LBS so far but have a ways to go... My real life friends havent been too supportive so I am hoping that you internet friends can be my support system!


:smile: Tina

    Stay warm Tina! I am in Canada so.... if you feel like the weather sucks just think of us up in the North, could always be worst! lol :P The city I live in is the 2nd highest average annual snowfall (in Canada) at an average of over 420cm annually... in December alone we got over 150cm! Oh well, at least it's pretty right? :P

    It's hard to be motivated to go out in crappy weather but maybe look up some exercise videos online? :)

    Oh my god!! That is insane!! We got 2-3inches or 5-8cm of snow and literally the city is at a standstill! No work today or tomorrow though ;)

    I guess the difference is we are used to it so everyone has winter tires, cloths, etc.... but the roads around here still suck! I live on a hill so I often just slide down on icy days :P all I can say, is dress in layers and keep your feet, hands, and head warm and you will be fine :) Oh and enjoy the snow while you can! Maybe make a mini snow man? :P

    Great job on the weight loss and the work outs! I'd be happy to lend support so friend me if you want. I'm here in Northern California where it's 70 degrees and we are praying for a little rain...

    Lawd girl! Louisiana checking in, we had icepocolypose here! 2 days at home! I'll be back at work tomorrow but day 3 of no school for my daughter. C'mon spring... or Saturday at least,when it's supposed to be 70!

    Great loss so far! Lots of support here and a ton of information to process. Looks like you're getting bombarded with friend requests, I'll send one too, the more the merrier! :drinker:

    Hey, I'm on here almost everyday, I'll add you! I know about the real life friends thing... more like family thing. My best friends live in three different countries and I met them all online. I've definitely benefitted from here. People are really supportive. Good luck on your goal! And I wonder what it's really like in North-Pole-America.
