Hi everyone, Jeff from NYC here....
my story:

In June of 2014 I saw a picture of myself, and was shocked at how I looked... so overweight, about 90 lbs at 265.
I immediately went on the Paleo plan and lost a bit of weight. Then did 2 6 week "boot camps", .... by Jan 2015 my weight loss was 60 lbs..... yeah! (They were the ones who first introduced me to MFP.. and I continue to love it!)

In one year I have gained back 28 lbs. #*$!

Nov and Dec last year were very difficult months as I grew to hate myself for allowing myself to gain that much weight back.

Hey I'm a pretty level headed guy... hate? Yeah... I was disgusted with myself.
And I came to the realization... The only thing that matters is the moment of right now. Move forward.

Without liquor, drugs..(well some 420, and Ativan) I took a 360.
At 231 lbs, Very positive now, in the Low carb high protein phase, and determined to loose the 28lbs, and the 30 more...

I welcome your conversation...

Happy to be home....
-Jeff
