Starting big...ending up small

So, I just joined myfitnesspal after my doctor suggested it. I am 5'7 1/2 and weight 237 lbs. I want to get to 180 lbs...where I feel comfortable and perhaps a little less when I reach that goal. Man, food is mine and everyone's kryptonite. I am a photographer on the side of my full time job at MacDill, and would love to feel good in front of the camera as much as I do taking the pictures. I can do this...I am starting to find my willpower, but still need a good push!

    Belated Welcome Brian :) I just noticed that someone had posted in this group lol. I do wish there were more local people that did because I just haven't saw a bunch that post locally. My husband works on MacDill also. He and I both are in the process of eating healthier and I use MFP to hold myself accountable, and he has an account on here because I made him make it, but he doesn't use it lol. I wish you luck in your weight loss journey!
