Just saying hello

Hi new to MFP. I'm 33 married and have 1 child. I live on Long Island NY. I'm looking to gain knowledge from people that are doing what I'm trying to do. I want to learn from the mistakes of others so I won't make them. I also want to make my own mistakes so I can learn from that as well. I have a very long way to go. I'm looking to loose 100+ lbs. I'm not giving up this time. I want to have more energy to do things. I don't want to have any weight related issues in the future. I've been very lucky so far and I don't want to press my luck anymore. I also think its the best time to set an example for my son. I want him to be healthy as well. I want to be able to run around with him in the park for a long time not just 5 mins or so at a time. Yes there's a lot of I wants there. Here's one more thing, I am ready to work my large behind off weather it be at the gym or walking with my dog or doing tai bo at home. Well that's me the early morning rambler!

Well...hello!

That sounds awesome. Welcome to the site! It's true, you have a long journey ahead but you've made the first step and that's usually the hardest one.

Thanks for you kind words. For some reason it doesn't feel like a hard step. I hope that means that I'm truly ready for this major change. I know that I have a long road ahead of me and I can't wait to see more of it!
