Hey there! Animator looking for friends!

Hey there! Names Dave and im an animator from Colorado! I've let my weight control my life for far to long and this is my New life turn around point.

For starters. i've always been a big guy since i was born and i kinda peaked at 6'1 (thank god im tall!) and weighed at nearly 280. Depression struck me in college and after with a major break up with a girlfriend and then after college being unemployed for nearly a year and a half. (sad face :frown: ) gained nearly 90 lbs and didnt even notice.

Now with 2014 i've started off the year with a brand new terrific job, anti depression meds and im certainly a happier person! However with the unfortunate cost of having that unhappy weight gain over the past couple years. (sad face again!) ANYWAY. i gotta make my overall goal of 204 and i got alot to go! so ill be around here alot keeping track of my food and exercise and hopefully supporting all of you as well! ^_^

EDIT* Blah forgot to talk about my first, well second day of my new diet plan, Less Calories and Fat but more importantly NO FAST FOODS and full sodas. started drinking diet drinks which could be bad but figured its a good way to get out of my soda addictioness thing. Something i learned with my diet however, is that im intaking way to much potassium! dear god i didnt even know i liked salt this much with how much i found it in the foods i ate! i dont even eat chips!
