Hi there,

I'm John, I'm 31 and I live in Glasgow in the U.K with my fiance Lauren and my cat and dog, Dexter and Crookston. I'm currently 302 pounds and have decided that rather than attempting a fad diet, I'm going to tackle the weight loss myself with help from websites like this. Anyway, just wanted to say hi!

John

    Considering what the food is like in the UK, I don't understand how anyone can get fat there.

    Welcome to MFP. I recently restarted my diet and this is the first time I am using support from other MFP members. So far it has been great. Make sure to friend others so they can encourage you and support you during those difficult times.

    Seriously? We're the home of the deep fried Mars bar! Of course people get fat here!
