Hi everyone, new to the group, but active on MFP since september 2012....finally starting to utilize the forums and groups more, not so shy anymore i guess. when i started MFP i had a goal of losing 100 pounds by my 35th birthday, due to sum complications not going to quite make it, but feel any loss by then will be celebrated, am looking forward to the challenges i see on here..looks like some fun., beginning weight was 290, currently at 270, with a goal weight of 140....hope everyone has a great week!!
