Great idea, Nate!

My name is Pete (transitionpete on Twitter) and I live in Northern VA with my wife, 1 kid, and hopefully an adopted kid by the end of summer.  I'm on a quest to lose my moobs (man-boobs) and muffintop (overhang at my waist).

Slow and steady.

You can read more about me at transitionpete.org.

Great idea - I'm Scott.

Hi there. I'm Scott (ReadScott.com & twitter.com/readscott) and I've been trying to start losing weight for about two years. Honestly, I haven't been trying very hard.

I hope Gyminee will give me some motivation, or at least the folks on here. Plus, if you've known me very long, you know my affinity for web apps, and Gyminee looks like a fun one to use, which is why I think it'll work this time.

Pleased to Meet You

it still kinda amazes me how twitter has brought our worlds together.

through blogs/twitter, i met Scott and even got the chance to give him a tour of DC when he was up this way.  or rather, he gave me a tour.

And even though transitionpete and I work about 15 minutes apart, we've never met...but our worlds...they have collided.

Yay twitter!

I'm Vera (inko9nito on twitter, inko9nito.com). I was pleasantly surprised to see a twitter group on here! Anyway, I'm a freelance web designer but I also work for my family's web design company, so that's pretty much all I do all day. 

I've only been a member for about 4 days but I like the idea of tracking exercises and nutrition online, plus I think the food-tracking actually motivates me to watch what I eat now!

Greetingz...

First off, since this is the twitter the group...i've added everyone that has introduced themselves here. secondly, i want to thank Vera, inko9nito, for turning me on to Gyminee.

On to the intro.

My name is carlos (cma3 on twitter / www.cma3.com) i was born and raised in nyc and after 32 years of life i abandoned my place of birth for florida. Talk about culture clash. I am a sysadmin for a large gov't entity in florida. I began my career approx 12 years ago in web developement and had the pleasure of working with several fortune 500's since then. I am married have a 1 year old (next week).

I've been working out on and off since I was 18 years old. Before then I played soccer for 15 years (yes, i started when i was 4). Recently, since the birth on my daughter, I put on alot of weight. So i am slowly but surely making that change. Like Vera mentioned the food tracker is quite the motivational tool. i use it religiously.

thats the gist of it. see you later (and on twitter).

Hey Everyone

hey everyone! my name is aaron bynion (twitter aaronbynion) and i hope to lose about 55lbs or so, and get down to 200lbs. Like the guy above said, Gyminee looks fun to use plus with the motivational help from the community, i think me and all the other users on here can and will meet their particular goals.

Is this limited characters?

I'm jademaid on Twitter. I'm also a member of the Pownce Group here on Gyminee.com. I was just browsing groups tonight and found this one. I'm hoping to find some more support and motivation. :)

Oh, Twitter...

I found Gyminee today via Awesomeology.com (a decidedly awesome site), and this group seemed like an obvious one to join. I love the idea of using Twitter as a way to find motivation for living a more active lifestyle!

I'm 22, live in NW Washington, DC, and you all can fine me on Twitter @girlinDC. :)
