I have noticed that this forum is dominated by woman, LOL.

I had better watch myself!

Anyway, I'm here because I want to lose 15 pounds and get in great shape and would like a few "Friends" to help me keep on track. I really like what I see in terms of people being supportive . .

    I'm a 31 year old male from Chicago, so we're not all women. :)

    Good luck. It's definitely worked for me.

    lol yes seems to be a lot of women....that being said I find that often I get some very good realistic feedback on fitness from the men, and sometimes they give me a better mental push to quit making excuses and get off my butt. So it takes all types.

    Welcome and feel free to add me if you want.
