A guy that needs friends and losing 60 Pounds

edited December 18 in Introduce Yourself
I have been on several sites and they are never geared for men. I am an engineer that goes to graduate school for environmental studies in the evenings. I am married and support does not come easy. All in all, I am down. I need to lose, improve my happiness, and hopefully make some friends to talk to.

    I have felt the same way about not being happy and so on. Please feel free to add me as a friend. We all need support whether it is everyday or some of the time. Especially on the hards days we have.

    hahah this line is gold:

    "I am married and support does not come easy."

    Drop me a friends request. I'm active and like adding people who are also active at any stage of their life.

    Hey, Welcome. I have also tried and lost and gained several times. My husband and I are loving MFP and I feel, for the first time, that this may be a permanent thing. I log daily so if you are looking for support, feel free to add me. There are a lot of guys on here and I know you'll find your place.

    This is the first time I've stuck to eating right and excercising for an extended amount of time. Best part is, I still feel as committed as the first week. If you've got a smart phone, I recommend downloading the app. It helps when you make your food choices throughout the day to refer to the app and see how the next snack or meal will affect your calorie intake. Friend request me if you'd like. :) And welcome to the group. :)

    Hey, feel free to add me as well! I'm new to MyFitnessPal, I don't really know if any of my friends or acquaintances have it or not and I don't wanna invite random friends to join... it might come across as "hey you, I've noticed you're overweight and though you could join too!" lol

    Hit me up. The men are definitely out numbered here but everyone so far has been really supportive and helpful.

    All the best as you rise to this challenge. Just consider it another engineering task to solve! :-)
