Just a geek trying to live healthier

So, this is my first forum post on MFP, but I've been using it for well over a month. I've tried the whole weight loss thing before, but it never really worked for me. I decided to give it another try after quitting both smoking and soft drinks. I figured "Hey, since those two things I love were easy to give up, why not give weight loss another try?" Possibly one of the best decisions I've made this year. Since I've started the process, I've lost nearly 30 lbs thanks to diet and exercise, two things that I used to despise. I'm really determined this time and I plan to reach my goal of obtaining a healthy weight. It's going to be a long process, but the results are totally going to be worth it

I quit smoking recently too, and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. You're already doing a fantastic job. Keep it up and the results are always worth it.

Thanks y'all, and it'll so be worth it. I've always been a pretty big guy, but I guess the motivation just hit me. I've never felt better, either.

Great job!! This is a great website and forum for those of us who truly want to live a healthy lifestyle, not just "diet". Keep it up!
