Long story short is after being diagnosed with thyroid cancer in April and having my thyroid removed I gained alot of weight.. Refuse to let that run my life anymore and now I'm looking for friends to help keep me motivated and I will do the same :smile: Looking to lose about 80lbs!!

    Hi Friends, good to be here. I gained about 17kg above my ideal BMI in less than 1 year. Freaked me out a bit. And I tend to default on weight loss programs. Am hoping I can keep up with this one. I need a team to work with. I work better in teams

    Hey there! You're me a year ago and down >50 lbs (probably more like 60 as I didn't get a scale immediately).

    I put on ~75 lbs after my thyroidectomy (papillary thyroid cancer) 15 years ago. Same as you I got tired of being overweight and my wife turned me onto MFP. Been logging ever since and almost back to my old self.

    My diary is open and feel free to send me an invite.
