Am I seriously the only guy on here? LOL

I'm sitting at 250lbs right now. Want to get down to 190 or so. I started watching what I ate calorie wise about a month ago. Just found this app for my android phone, and seems like a pretty easy way to keep track! So far, I'm down 14lbs and haven't struggled at all. Just paying more attention to what I shovel in my mouth. Here's some pics of me where I am right now.

No you are not the only guy on here. However, you are the only one I have seen with full length pictures. You are ok! And you are doing good with your weight loss - men seem to have it easier anyway. You naturally have more muscle.
Keep it up and want to see the follow up pictures!0 -
Yes you are the only guy. Behave. :laugh:0

I think I saw one other man so that makes 2
good job, hope for you continued success. 0 -
Nope, I am a guy and I am here.
Glad to see you're doing well. Keep up the good work and it'll pay off.0 -
Oh there is a woman around here but she's really a man but that's whole other thread. Something to do with profile settings.0

Sounds pretty good. Are you getting any exercise in at all. You will speed up your losses if u do basic weight training as well... I'm actually on a road to do the opposite of what you are doing...gain muscle so I use this to make sure I'm eating enough. But to answer your question, nope...not the only guy...lol0

Awesome work brother. I started this adventure myself about a year ago and i been doing the same thing. Being careful about what goes in. Except for this turkey week. I failed miserably.0

No, you aren't!
Good luck on your journey. I've definitely found controlling and changing my weight much easier with the help of the features on this site.0 -
There`s a few of us about, but we like to keep a low profile
Welcome and good luck

Phew! This is what I posted on another forum I'm a member of a little while back and it holds true today...
I'm in reasonable shape, stamina wise, but I've got about 70lbs I'd really like to get rid of. I walk 5-10 miles most weekends in the desert chasing small game. I don't have a problem hiking, etc. I can play a 30 minute full-court basketball game and be winded, but not dead. I don't work in an office, I'm self-employed, and manual labor is my thing. I climb ladders, dig holes, carry heavy stuff, etc etc. Muscle/stamina is not really an issue, I'd just like to get rid of the damn fat. I'm 33 years old, weigh 265. In high school I was around 190. I'd like to get back to that weight.
I've never really been careful with my diet, and I know that's the problem. I know I'm thinking about this at the worst possible time of year, but I'm ready. I'm not averse to exercise, but it seems like no matter how much physical activity I do, my weight is pretty constant. I've been within 5lbs of where I am right now for probably 3-5 years. In other words, I know my diet is the major issue. I like to eat. I enjoy food. And I've told myself for a long time "who cares if I'm a little chunky, food's yummy!". Well, I'm kinda sick of telling myself that. I'm getting to the point, age wise, if I don't rope it in and make some changes, I'm going to end up a lot bigger than I am as my physical activities slow down.0 -
Nope, seen quite a few around!0

Another guy. Counting calories is manly. It makes my wife happy and all my buddies jealous.0
-
i have a lot of guy friends on here and, i have to say, its nice to be completely open with our "fat issues" with someone of the opposite sex. Usually, its so taboo to be open and honest like that :blushing:
So yeah,there are guys and we love having you here! :glasses:0 -
Nope, not the only guy. Although, there are only a precious few of us here. Congratulations on your success so far!0

Got a ton of friend requests! Thanks! Guess I'm not the only guy.
Going to be looking to all of you for motivation from time to time! Thanks!0
