Hello all new to myfitnesspal

I've been using myfitnesspal for roughly a month now and love it. I liked it so much I purchased it for the year. I'm 59 years old and my weight was starting to go up and I knew I needed help to stop the increasing weight and lose some weight. When I started using the app I weighed weighed 232 lbs. but didn't start taking it seriously until Febuary 1st and I now weigh 218.4 lbs. I am pretty muscular underneath all this fat so and at 5'10" I've set my goal weight at 190 lbs. I'm looking forward to the journey and think that getting back in shape I'll be able to see my grandchildren grow up.
