edited January 3 in Introduce Yourself
Just wanted to say hello. I have seen MFP tickers on many websites and community boards, and decided to sign up. I need some motivation and encouragement from others who are fighting to lose, same as me. I have gained over 100 lbs. in 13 yrs., and KNOW I need to get this weight off me. I can't walk up a flight of stairs without being out of breath, I work at a desk job all day, my exercise ball at home is covered in a thick layer of dust.

However, I am not giving up - I know I can do this! I know you all can meet your goals as well. Let's do this together!

Welcome!

    Welcome to MFP. You'll find alot of support here. I've been on here for a few months. I've lost 50 pounds so far. Still have about 40 more to go. I'm Mark. Feel free to add me if you'd like. Again welcome.
  • Welcome!!! The first step is always the hardest. Actually, I am going to be doing a Fit for the Holidays challenge..... It'll be through facebook, because I know how to run it there. But it's free:+} just accountability and a little bit of homework. Let me know if you'd like to join to kickstart your fitness journey:+}
