Been here awhile, but never introduced myself

Hi, all:
I have been using MFP for quite awhile, but there are many times when I am off the radar. Well, I am back on, and since I have been tracking over the last 3 weeks I have lost about 4 pounds. It's not as much as I would like, but I guess some weight loss is better than nothing. According to all the charts, I should weigh about 65 pounds less than I am now, but I have always found it hard to maintain that weight as I am large boned and heavily muscled. So I am shooting for a 45 pound weight loss, and then I will reevaluate my goals. I would love to lose the weight by January, and I think it can be done. I have a bad back that limits the kind of cardio I can do... no zumba, no running, nothing with heavy impact. I can swim, walk on the treadmill, ride a recumbent bike, etc.

Well, just thought I would say hi!

welcome to the site and putting yourself out there... being on the radar can be a scary place, or so i thought before doing it too... been with mfp for little over a month now and shooting for 58 more pounds to shed... also using alternative cardio options... if anything can help get me to my goals, i truly believe it is mfp... fell free to add me as a friend if you would like :-)
