Hello,

I'm Donovan, and I am currently a college student (business major) at a local community college. I currently live in Lufkin, TX but my hometown is in Milwaukee, WI. I am 20 years old, 6'3" and weighing about 313 pounds. I managed to stumble upon this website because my fiance inspired me about losing weight with her.

My goal in life is to stay in shape and keep myself in shape for next year's football season. I plan to reach a 225-pound goal for myself, which will place me as having less weight than my younger brother. I hope the next time I see him, I would become a better sized man for both my family and him as well (he looks up to me mostly as an older brother).

Oh and by the way: I would like friends as well for encouragement. It is always a motivation to see support from others.

It's time to settle this...

    Hello,
    I am a newbie as well. A single mother of two and i need to lose 100 lbs for my kids. I joined a gym today and cleaned out the cupboards, the pantry and the fridge. All the junk is gone and we went grocery shopping to boughts tons of fruits and veggies. It is time to put 100% into this challenge. I always put 100% into everything else that i do, so why is this so hard for me. Looking forward to receiving some help, friendship & motivation from other pepople. Good luck to everyone! :bigsmile:
