New to MFP, hopefully this will keep me in shape

Hi everyone,

I'm roughly 5'11 and 160 lbs, despite having lifted for a substantial amount of time.
I found myself always cutting and consuming too few cals, and then being able to eat 6000 calories for a few days to recover and becoming obese and getting nowhere.
I ended up becoming 220 lbs doing permanent damage to myself with growth of new fat cells.

I'm hoping MFP can help me stay on the right track
I'll be consuming a deficit until the summer to get to 8% bodyfat and then, for the first time in my life, bulk properly on +250 cals (or 500) surplus, and track everything that I do.

I've been failing my goals for far too long and it's time to get serious.
I am hoping to meet some like minded people on this website and wish everyone as well as myself the best of luck.
Good luck with our fitness goals of 2012.

Stay safe.
