Hello!
New to MFP and would love some extra motivation and encouragement.

Boring background stuff:
10 yrs ago i was 220 lbs. And became a member of a low carb group and lost 60 pounds in 6 months. (Im rediculously competative).. anyway, I kept a few of the habbits i developed back then (mainly IF)..but over the years ive gotten pretty lax on my diet. I starting to see the scale gradually go up and i seriously need to catch it before its totally out of control.

I weigh 185 now and just turned 50 in May. Im not wanting to be so restrictive on my carb intake this time around (salads and veggies werent exactly allowed on atkins... Booh!) So maybe this whole calorie deficit idea might be a better rout for me to lose those 25 pound i gained.

All that said..
Id love to have a few friends in here to share advice and encouragement along the way! 😁
