Finally doing it! This time all the way.

Enough procrastinating, flirting with commitment, and just generally wasting my time. I'm here to introduce myself and get serious about staying accountable to my goals!

But first, some background. I'm 26, a new father to two perfect little girls, and a long-time yoyo dieter. For most of my life I've been unhappy with my body composition. After several rounds of overly restrictive fad diets (low carb primarily) I finally gave up and decided to follow the MFP philosophy in January 2016. Since then my weight has been the most stable since High School, and I feel like I can actually acheive my dream goals.

These forums have been huge in helping me break years of ingrained bad habits and unlearn the misinformation about what it looks like to be healthy.

No more lurking! I'm committed to reaching my goals, and in order to do that I need the accountability of others in the same situation. I'm excited to be involved in this community and make new friends, encouraging and motivating each other to better things!

I'll be starting an accountability thread to track my progress. It's happening!
