Hi all,

My name is Dan. I'm married & have one son who is 7 who is full of energy:) I started my journey one month ago today on MFP. My wife found this app for my iPhone and said we should both try it. I have already lost 12 lbs in the first month.

My wake up call to lose wieght came at the end of April when I was sent to a Nutrion & wieght loss clinic. The Dr put me on a six month program to help me lose & to prepare for bariatric bypass surgery. I just can't see myself getting this surgery done, but I need to lose wieght.
I have been exploring this forum for the last week & have found great motivation in reading everyone's success stories & looking at the before & after photos. (Fantastic results!) I have been motivated to purchase JM's 30 Day Shred DVD and know I will need support & motivation from members of this site. I never would have thought I could lose 100 lbs but after seeing those success stories, I now know I can do it! So if you are willing to help me please add me as a friend. I will support you as well the best I know how. I would also love to have someone as a friend who has done the JM 30 DS workout. From what I read it seems like a kick your but workout, but I'm ready to have my butt kicked! My DVD should arrive early next week & I'll be starting it as soon as I get it.

    Just finished day 4 Level 1 of 30DS. Good luck! Yes, it'll kick your butt, but that's the point, right? Stick with it, even when you think you're going to die. You can do it!
