Give/receivesupport from a land far away

Hi all,

I reside in the land of kangaroos and emus and am looking to lose between 25-30kg (that's 55-66 pounds for the majority US contingent on here).

I've been a member for a while but never really used the site and thought that today should be the day to get active and start logging the information to help me to my goal. Of course, losing weight is a journey and travelling with like-minded souls always eases the setbacks and makes the victories that much sweeter.

I'd love to give as well as receive support on this journey....

    Hi there, I'm from Canada. Seems there are a lot of Aussies on this site, actually... but that's okay, because I like Aussies! We have things in common! Like, the Commonwealth. Plus, you have the big country with the tiny creatures foreigners are afraid will kill them... I have the big country with the very large creatures foreigners are afraid will kill them...

    I'm aiming to lose a fair bit more than you, and I'm doing it through serious strength training (with a side of low-intensity fat burn cardio, on depleted glycogen stores) and eating real food (by a college-trained cook: ME. Those student loans I owe shouldn't be in vain, so feel free to ask for cooking advice). If you're of a like-mind, feel free to add me. Maybe just remind me in your friend request message that I posted in your intro thread, if you do.
