I have been pleasantly surprised how effective MFP has been. I've struggled with ~30 extra lbs since I was an early teenager and I'm finally looking to shed that weight now a decade later. I'm a software engineer and I work with a lot of overweight and out of shape people, and I refuse to be like them -- like a typical American.

I've tried losing the weight in the past but I keep putting it back on by going back to my fried food diets. This time is different. I am eating IIFYM (If It Fits Your Macros) to achieve body builder macros while keeping small satisfying foods in my diet (in moderation).

I am a huge fan of Pro Bodybuilder Layne Norton's advice about protein intake, lifting mentality, and overall nutrition outlook.

I can't wait to post progress pictures!
