edited September 2024 in Introduce Yourself
Hey y'all... Just started the site a few days ago and I am really enjoying it. Can't wait to get to know some of you. I have some big goals for the next year. Number one is my weight. I have been working out for over a year now and have dropped a LOT of weight on my own. I starting running on an eliptical then and do about an hour a day, but just started a new program for weight. My original goal was getting my cardio going and the plus was I lost a bunch of weight, but now I need to flat out loose weight. Never really saw myself as fat or accepted labels, but - lets face it - when you need to loose over 100 to get back to your best weight and fitness level, then I think I can count myself in the "fat" range. Really enjoyed reading everyone's messages and thought I would introduce myself too. Have an awesome day! :smile: ~Lis

    It seems to be a really nice site, the people are so friendly.
    I've joined other similar sites and left on the same day due to lack of response or just plain mean-ness.
    Good to meet another newbie xxxx
