A belated introduction

Technically I've been a member of this site for a year or so but I never did an introduction, so here goes.

In Feb 2011, my wife and I embarked on a much needed diet program. I chose Medifast, which worked very well for me. My wife couldn't deal with Medifast so she used the Weight Watchers program. We both did very well and met our goals. I lost 65 lbs, spent about 3 months in transition, and have been successfully maintaining since then (about a year).

I originally came to this site last year when I started my transition phase and was in search of a food tracker. I had been using the Medifast tracker but tried MFP since many of the other Medifast users seemed to like it. I initially decided I didn't care for it so I continued to use the Medifast tracker. Recently, the weaknesses of the MF tracker started to get to me and the MF folks didn't seem to be making any improvements, so I'm giving MFP another try. I am definitely liking it a lot so as of last week, I have switched over. Been browsing around the boards here and it looks like a good place to be, so I guess you're stuck with me!
