Do dudes use this site? I am friends with, like, 10. But I'm just curious. Male weight loss and female weight loss are different animals.

    Yep, plenty of dudes here.

    Slightly different. Thermodynamics are the same, but women have it tougher due to hormones and TOM.

    Tons of dudes... you are right they are different animals for weight loss...... I find looking at other people's diaries are especially helpful and when people comment on my diary - it helps!

    Not sure what you mean. Calories are calories. We store them in different areas than women; but food = fuel.
    And Weight Loss = Fuel Intake - Fuel Spent. This is true regardless of sex. We just have the benefit of a higher basal metabolism due to a higher muscle mass. They have the beneift that more fat looks good on them than it does on us (Bewbs... Bottom... Hips...)

    It depends on which way you mean it.
    To an extent they are. It all comes down to hard work on either end.

    Yup..Been on here for 4 months...fantastic tool for weight loss. Lost 20 lbs on here using a combination of P90X, cardio and good diet. Lost 10 lbs the 2 months before that before I found MFP.

    Yep, there's guys around here. I've been on the site since early January 2011, used it to great success. I think, for the most part, the guys on here are just a little less vocal than the ladies.

    Dude, the guys here are just less visible in forums since they don't have to blog-alanche everytime they eat an Oreo, need opinions about which jeans fit best, and have an OCD need to post pics of their cats. : ) Some people have a greater need to express themselves and a majority of those are female.

    But I agree, generally speaking, that there can be very different aspects to fitness based on gender and/or goals. It's value added to find some friends who are on a similar path as oneself, regardless of their chromosone profile.

    It's true, I'm always fretting about my oreos, cats, and the number on the scale.
