Just want to introduce myself, I joined mfp so I can monitor my calories better and I have to say I am loving it so far!!
I have always been around 15-20lbs overweight, I am 6'4" so people it didnt notice so much, but then 2 years ago I gave up smoking and put on around 30lbs in 4 months
I have never really lost it since but have half-heartedly tried.
I have also been diagnosed wuth type II diabetes so this is a good way of monitoring my intake.
I am hoping that mfp and it's members can keep me motivated to get rid of this fat, I have got to the point now where I absolutely hate it!
