    Welcome! I'm trying to lose about 130-135 lbs right now. I lift heavy at the gym, like building muscle (I want curves, but firm curves. I DON'T intend to look like an extra member of an all-male 80s hair metal band. I like having my natural boobs too much, to let that happen), and I'm doing steady "fat loss" cardio (65-70% of my MHR) on depleted glycogen stores, whenever i can.

    I like to think that I am encouraging, although I will still be honest and constructive with people when it comes to their diet and exercise. As nice as possible, but honest. I'm not one to blindly encourage anything that comes under your calorie limit, as I've seen some extremely concerning practices that still meet that goal. I'm a culinary grad, I know some things about nutrition, so I feel I can provide some advice on both (if you're a sucky cook, I can help).

    Anyway, if you feel you're on the same or a similar page as I am, feel free to send me a friend request. I just ask that you mention this thread or some other brief explanation, so I don't accidentally decline you (my short-term memory is utter crap). Same goes for any other like-minded individuals who might want to add me.
