    I've been here long enough to not know how long I've been on any more (somewhere between 3 and 4 years), I think when I started there were 2 or 3 hundred people total on here. I was one of maybe 5 guys. But that says as much about guys attitudes on weight loss as anything else. You have to be a strong man to accept that you're fat and put yourself out there. I've since lost the weight, added a bit of muscle and a lot of knowledge, and so now I mainly just help others and maintain. Welcome men!

    I was married for a long time, so I am only recently growing my pair back. joke.gif

    Welcome.

    Funny, that reminds me of the day my wife scheduled my vasectomy. All she said to me was "put on a pair of clean underwear, we are going for a ride in the car." :frown:

    I don't know how to tell you this mate but your face is missing. Lose all the weight you like but I imagine a missing face is a deal breaker for most ladies....

    Another guy here. I started at 250 and am 171 now. I've been on since March 2009 and am within a couple of pounds of my goal weight. My BMI has me now in the healthy range and I have dropped my goal to just losing a 1/2 pound of weight a week. I'm starting to adjust to eating more calories now. I've been averaging around 1650-1700 calories a day since then with an average of 650 calories a day in exercise. I mainly focused on cardio but am now adding weight training for toning purposes. My main exercise was brisk walking. At the beginning, I could walk 2.5 miles at about 3.0 mph. Now, I can walk 10.5 miles at about 4.4 mph.

    This has been really a big challenge and I'm really proud of what I have accomplished. Still, I'm putting out this info so you can see it can be done. I'll stay on this site for the foreseeable future because it is as they say a lifestyle change.

    It is hard, but you can see it can be done. You just have to think about more. One last example. I work in an office setting. I climb 60 flights of stairs throughout the day just to add to the calorie burn. This also allows me to eat more.

    And you are doing good with your weight loss - men seem to have it easier anyway.

    Hehe if only that were true....

    And no, you're not the only guy on here :D
