Hi everyone,
My wife has been on here for some time now, and I'm finally getting myself in gear. I'm a software developer so I sit on my duff for 8+ hours a day with little activity, though i do try to get on the treadmill or walk around the block when I can. Also my eating has gotten WAY out of hand which I hope keeping track of it here will help.
If anyone's in the same boat maybe we can 'friend' each other, or whatever it's called on here
I need all the support I can get.
Take care,
Sam
