As the subject title mentions I am a no longer active (once a Marine, always a Marine) United States Marine that was also a former high school athlete that never worried about what he ate, or how much. The scale tonight showed the highest number that I have ever seen, 350, but the scale and I do not have a reoccurring schedule of any frequency at all. I typically weigh myself at the most once in a year (and that is being generous).

Have heard about the myfitpal app from a couple people I know and they have given it rave reviews, one even by his MD's direction. So I decided to give it a try (the reason for the weigh-in). Tracking my food on a daily basis is going to be the hardest habit to form, but I'll get there if I keep at it.
