Hello, all my name is Joseph and I am a 31 year old college student, I am currently on here to see how much weight I can actually lose because at the moment I do not know how much I weight at this current moment so I just put in 400 pounds because the last time I weighed myself was back in june and I was 380.
I am also looking for friends that can help motivate me because I am not a very motivated person and I also think my downfall for gaining weight right now is that I am currently not employed but I figure once I get a job the weight might start coming off because of all the moving around.
I would like to get down to 175 pounds and I know that is going to take alot of work and motivation but I am up for the task now because of my past history and past family history which is high blood pressure ran on both of my parents side of the family and I am currently on medicine for high blood pressure, and also considering I lost both of my parents before the age of 24 so yeah I have a little bit of motivation from that because I dont want to end up in an early grave like my parents did I mean my mom died at the age of 39 from a massive heart attack and my dad died at the age of 52 from a stroke, so for your information just to let you know I was born in 1983.
I am basically giving up and asking for help because I need to get my life back on track.! thank you for taking the time to read this and if you would like to be friends do not hesitate to send me a message first and then a friends request I am waiting to be friends with anyone who can keep me motivated!
Have a Blessed Day and good luck to everyone.

Hi! I've used MFP before and managed to lose loads of weight so I'm sure it will help you to! I've recently come back onto it as I've managed to put all the weight I lost back on plus extra and I'm getting married in 2017 which is as good incentive I'm going to get! I'm Abbi, My name in MFP is AbbiBish12 so add me
