in Introduce Yourself
Been using this app since January 8th and have lost 23 pounds so far... Yea me!! Feeling healthier and happier every day, but it would be nice to have some other friends to help me along and I would do the same for them. Any takers?

I'm a very outdoorsy type that hunts, fishes, camps, and does competitive archery (I'm a 3 time world champion too!). I also do alot of volunteer work teaching others about the outdoors in classes like Survival, Outdoor Cooking, Archery and all other shooting sports, Hunter Education, and Orienteering. Would love to have some other outdoorsy friends if there are any here... we can swap wild game recipes too!

Hope to hear from some folks!! :flowerforyou:

    hey! Some impressive stats you have there! Congrats on being a champion! I live in the country and like to do outdoor activities. My family hunts, fishes, and likes to sit around the fire in the summertime. I sent a friend request to you! Jen:smile:

    Thanks everyone! And I've accepted the friend requests... Thanks!

    I LOVE archery.... Hence my username. I've been at it since '96, and have been hooked ever since. I laid off for a couple of years to become a mom to two amazing adopted adolescent boys, but am getting back into it more all the time. My most recent big win was my 3rd World Championship in 2012, but because of $$ constraints and other commitments I didn't get to go last year... but one of my best friends went and she won, so I was super stoked for her.

    I have yo-yo'd in weight for years, and was my lightest in '05 at 180. But since becoming a mom I've packed it back on and was up to 250.... Ugh. I started having some health problems and on January 8th one of my doctors told me I would likely need to have surgery (nothing major) but toget the best results I need to lose 60 pounds. So I'm over 1/3 of the way there already. The first 20 came off FAST, but the next won't I know. Just have to keep at it. Momma plans on looking GOOD this summer!! :)

    Hope to get to know you guys better in the weeks and months to come!
