in Introduce Yourself
Hello everyone!

I will preface this by saying I pretty much suck at openings and introductions. I actually signed up early last year for this site but health issues got in the way last year. Now that that's over, I'm ready to start this journey of keeping fit and hopefully staying out of the hospital.

Let's see, I'm 32 and a web developer & graphic designer who typically hibernates in the winter (I hate this cold!). I'm pretty much one big sarcastic nerd I suppose.

I'm just looking for friends to chat with, to motivate, or whatever really. So yeah, feel free to add me/message me!

Dave

    Hi dave, add me as a friend. I'm trying to lose a lot more than you. I'm a freaking accountant that sits at a desk all day long and I like to eat at Publix' fried food counter.

    I lived in Iowa for about 10 years. Before that was born and raised in Illinois, so I'm a Mid-Westerner at heart. I'm in New Hampshire now, so I haven't gotten away from the cold. I have been hibernating and eating all winter and am ready to start losing winter weight. Feel free to add me to your list.

    We got stuck there last year due to the flood and another time we were there it flooded and took us forever to get back to Chicago. I love the college town and spirit.
