This is my first week on here. I came across this site as an android app on my phone. So far I'm pretty impressed by what I've found. I really like it here.

I'm trying to get back into shape. I weighed 175/180 in high school and I want to get back to that weight. I have 40 pounds to lose and I will get there by the end of summer. I'm looking for some friends and encouragement/support.

Go Bucks!

    I am also from Ohio, I am trying to get back in shape also.The place I work is full of bad food and it is so hard to resist, but I figure if I can give up the thing that I love the most which is bacon, then I should be able to do anything lol. So as of today I have not had bacon for two weeks. So good luck to us both
