After years of messing around on MFP I am set to do this. Morbidly obese almost 40 guy who has lost at least 100 pounds only to gain it back after a failed relationship and emotional eating. I live a pretty active lifestyle in terms of doing things but need some serious motivation in the eating department. I have weeks where I am awesome, quickly followed up by weeks of not so awesome. My weight has never once held me back from doing anything and I have never said I can't do something because I am too fat. Now I just don't want to be fat anymore, I am perfectly fine with "husky" lol. Just trying to stay motivated and make some friends along the way. I appreciate your comments and sentiments. I would be happy in the long run to lose 150 pounds but I will take 5 to start. Looking forward to your comments!

    Congratulations on making the decision to commit to this!

    I'm also very active, but my issues arise when it comes to eating. Im active on MFP as I love the motivation it provides me.

    You can definitely do this!!!
