Hi MFPers!

My name is Casey. I'm from Michigan and am new to MFP, having heard about it from a good friend.

I've been heavy for a long time now and am, as they say, "sick and tired of being sick and tired"! I have about 163 pounds to lose (gulp) and feel truly ready to do it once and for all. My motivations are better health and wellness, looking and feeling better overall, and getting my life back so that I can achieve my goals and dreams.

I've been visiting the message boards for awhile now and have found so much inspiration! I look forward to "meeting" many of you and seeing less and less of you (and me!) as time goes on. :-)

Thanks for reading!

    Welcome Casey! I'm sort of new here too and I'm excited to see all the support that's available! Everyone is right, the first (and probably the hardest) is to get on and get started! Good luck to you and to all of us!!
