in Introduce Yourself
Greetings all,

I'm a 28 year old male who's just made the switch from WW to MFP. I'm well on my way to my goal (started at 285, goal is 200, currently at 251...but have been here for a while and looking to get serious about weight loss/lifestyle change). I had to leave WW because the wife and I are trying to save a little dough and we discovered MFP in the process.

Anyway, it seems like the boards here are more active, so that's a plus.

One thing I learned from WW is to get out of the "diet" mindset and into the "lifestyle" mindset. As such, I'm not trying to "go on a diet" but rather to change my whole lifestyle and I feel like I'm starting to make good progress.

So, just wanted to introduce myself and make a few friends.

    That's one of the things I also learned from WW, lifestyle changes - which is good, because those holidays and birthdays still come around every year! I'm new to MFP as well. Here's hoping we both have great success!
