Hello MFP members,

I have been using the MFP app on my phone since last November and initially had great success with it. I hit a small roadblock however after my son dipped my smart phone into a glass of water. While waiting for my replacement phone I pretty much completely shut down counting calories and working out and gained all of the weight back that I had lost since November......in just two months.

I have been on a weight loss roller coaster for the past 24 years that I have served in the military. Now that I am retired I really lost any motivation to keep the weight off of my body. That is until the clothes that I just bought a month ago for my new job started to not fit correctly, I finally got on the scale again.....and saw my huge belly in the mirror............so here I am.

I am a married man of 15 years and me and my wife have seven beautiful children.

I am ready to be a motivator and to be motivated as we take steps towards making our weight loss goals and keeping the weight off for good.

Feel free to add me if you are looking for someone who has a positive attitude towards weight loss.

Take care,

Fred R.

    You can do this! Don't eat anything the kids are eating unless it contains less than 5 ingredients. I was eating same as my teenager and it is a recipe for disaster. My body had a tantrum over the loss of chocolate type items and then calmed down. I know what you mean about the roller coaster! Hang in there!:smile:
