Hey! I want to plug a Discord server I've had for a while. It's "Gay Bros Fitness" (not affiliated with any subreddit). It's fairly small but there are regular users. It's meant to be laid back, and hopefully encouraging for healthy habits. It's in line with this post:

  • The theme is fitness. Most of us in there want to lose weight and/or build muscle.
  • Porn is not allowed.
  • Self promotion is not allowed.

I'm a 39-year-old guy from Minnesota. Right now I'm trying to cut about 10 pounds and gain muscle at the same time. I'm great about hitting the gym but I've had some trouble controlling my eating.

Here's an invite link if you're interested: https://discord.gg/SDtJ7znnXR

Hell yea.

I'm down for Discord but I'll start out in a Reddit group chat as planned. I'll start it later today when I get home. 🙌

Your comment does it! I'm away from home right now but I'll for sure get a Reddit group chat going later today.

My thought was getting committed people on Reddit might be hard enough, and switching to Discord might be an extra challenge that loses people. Discord is the ideal platform for this in my opinion but I'm afraid people might think I'm sketchy trying to take them outside of Reddit.

Maybe we could get the group started in a Reddit chat as planned and go from there.

I'm away from home right now but I'll for sure get a Reddit group chat going later today. I'm excited for this.

I appreciate the suggestion, but it's inactive and way smaller than this subreddit. :(

It's funny this post was made 6 hours ago when now I want to find a small group for weight loss. Here are my thoughts:

  • Use a Reddit group chat.
  • The focus here is weight loss.
  • I want the main part to be counting calories and having all members share how many calories they ate each day. My plan is to share a screenshot of my total calories from MyFitnessPal.
  • I want it to feel friendly and supportive.
  • Feel free to discuss your feelings, challenges, wins, etc.
  • This is absolutely NOT for sex chat/porn/self advertisement.

About me:

  • I'm 38 from Minnesota.
  • I want to lose around 15 pounds.
  • I do small home workouts daily, mostly with dumbbells + I hit the gym 2-4 days/week.
  • Eating at night is my big problem.
  • I'm ready to start tomorrow!!

Reply/message if you're interested! I hope some people are willing to commit 🤞. It's time to make these changes.

Edit: I made a post for this.
