Self Introduction

I'm a 72 year-old Brit but a long-term resident of Tokyo. I recently remarried, and my much younger wife wants me to get into better shape. I found this great (my fitnesspal) iPhone app--and now the great website behind it. Looking for encouragement as I seek to cut down the calories and increase the exercise.

    Thank you, Betty! So we call it MFP. I'll go along with that. May you make it all the way to your ideal weight AND KEEP IT.

    I have never in my life watched calories, and it's quite fascinating to find the contents of all the different things I've been eating. My wife is apparently giving me a very healthy and well-balanced diet, which is nice to now and pleased her no end.

    All the best,

    Roger
