My First Post

Just wanted to say hello, this is my first post.
I have been using this site since 11/26/11 and so far so good. I have lost 29 lbs so far and would love to drop another 71 to make it an even 100 lbs.
Quick story of how I got started was that I got on the scale on 11/26/11 which was the day we left for a cruise vacation and I was horrified at what I saw. Then that same night my 3 yr old crawled into bed to lay with me. He climbed up, leaned against me and patted me on the stomach and said," Daddy you have a big belly". That was it. I found this site's phone app that night and started the next morning.
I am a 40/male and would love to talk with people and make some friends here. Maybe some meal ideas and recipes too. I usually eat the same foods day in and day out and they are getting a little boring. Good luck to everyone and feel free to add me
