What's Up

Options
Hey everybody...new to the site just wanted to greet and say hello. My friend told me about this to help keep track of what I eat, so that is why I joined. Just looking to lose about 15-20 pounds to compensate for the beer drinking during football season. I lift weights alot, but havent hit the cardio that much cause my metabolism has always been high. But guess, when I turned 30 it started to drastically slow down. So, hello and I look forward to speaking with everybody.

    Good luck with this website. I just turned 36 recently, but have been exercising alot at the Y. Recently joined the Get Fit program. I don't really need to loose weight (I only weigh 106 to 108), but in 6 weeks, I have lost 2 inches and feeling better and fitter of course. This website helps tremendously as far as tracking my exercises and calories intake, especially eating healthier!!

    I'm sure you'll get there fast!!

    The extensive food databank is amazing, I am losing the 40 pounds I gained after I broke my back 9 months agao and this site is an excellent tool for seeing the numbers. If only it could give me a few more hours a day that would be great :bigsmile:

    No, but I am a snowboarder and snowboard instructor, which is what helped me. I was a commercial building inspector and a fire escape I was on broke and down I went - 30 feet they say. I tried to grab the rails but when I knew I was going down I used what I know from boarding to help break my fall, I was just going too fast and landed on my butt (on the step that broke no less).

    Ow! I'll bet that building didn't pass inspection! I hope you're back on the snow soon! We'eve already been twice this year. The 22 ft superpipe is already open at Copper Mtn. The US Snowboarding team is preparing for the Grand Prix at Copper starting this weekend. We hope to go watch them. If not, the finals are on NBC this Sunday.
