I came across this place by accident a few months ago when I downloaded the app from marketplace. I never really used it until this week. I did a sleep study this summer and received the results last week. Pretty bad sleep apnea and the doc said I need to lose weight, no surprise. I am 43 and should be about 155 lbs, currently I am 220 lbs. Doc gave me a time to retest in 6 months after I have lost 25 lbs. Doc said best way to lose weight is to count.....so I reunited with MFP and sure am glad....

Been reading the forums and its cool that so many peeps help each other here. I got my sister to join so I have my first friend, need more ..lol

Already this place is making a difference, I just got to stay with it.

Thanks for all your great posts, the info is amazing.

    Welcome and I will send a friend request. I knew people on Steroids for medical issues and they said it was like sitting in front of the fridge with a fork.
