| | | Question from a newbie.... Hi guys...
I'm new to the forum, which I thought might be helpful for keeping my New Year's Resolutions intact.
I've been on a couple of the boards....and was wondering about other people on the site....
A little about myself- I live in the DC area, work in marketing, which means I'm basically at my computer from 9-5 every day, and then spend a couple hours each day in the car commuting, so as you can see, I'm not that active. I don't have a ton of time for working out, but am trying to get motivated to make time. Are a lot of people in here like me, or are there more buff body building types? |

| | | From my point of view, it's a mix - there's fitness professionals on this forum (trainers etc), as well as fitness enthusiasts, (some of whom happen to be bodybuilders), and those who just want to drop a few pounds. So, chances are there's someone (or some people) with goals similar to yours. Try posting a diary in the Women's Health section with your goals, food plan and training regimen so you (and others on the forum) can track your progress. Welcome to the boards. |

I'm right there with ya. I'm on the computer 8-10 hours a day and drive 45 minutes one way to my job. I take care of horses morning and night. I fell into a horrible "hurry-up and go" diet and lazy lifestyle. Its easy to do when we have deadlines and committments, huh?
I decided to stop the insanity this year after spending too much time gaining weight on low calorie diets that would not work. So I found myself here learning the real truth!

| | Oh yeah, that's me alright! I'm doing everything I can now to try and incorporate health/fitness into my lifestyle, and even just perusing the boards here and there throughout the day helps me to stay motivated, and head to the gym a few times a week after work!
That's the idea anyways
Thank you all for the welcome |
